Oliver Sørensen Jensen (born 10 March 2002) is a Danish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Scottish Premiership club Celtic, on loan from Serie A club Parma.
Club career
Midtjylland
Youth
Sørensen started playing football at Nørre Aaby IK, then at Strib IF and later joined OKS in 2013. From there, he joined the academy of FC Midtjylland and on his 15th birthday, he signed a three-year youth contract with the club.
Sørensen already began playing with the U19s at the age of 16 and was shortly after promoted permanently to the U19 squad despite his young age, after signing a new three-year youth contract in August 2018. The talentfull midfielder once again signed a new three-year deal with Midtjylland in June 2019, where it was also agreed, that he would become a permanent part of the Danish Superliga squad from the 2020–21 season.
Senior
FC Midtjylland
On 28 June 2020, Sørensen made his official debut for Midtjylland against F.C. Copenhagen in the Danish Superliga. Sørensen started on the bench, but replaced Anders Dreyer in the 88th minute. Sørensen was also subbed in a month later in the second-last game of the season against Brøndby IF.
Loan spells
In the first half part of the 2020–21 season, Sørensen continued to train with the first team but did only play for the U19s. To gain some more experience, Sørensen was on 26 January 2020 loaned out to Midtjylland affiliate club, Danish 1st Division-side FC Fredericia, for the rest of the season. Sørensen had a good spell at Fredericia, where he played 11 games and scored one goal. Sørensen returned to Midtjylland for the 2021–22 season.
On 31 March 2022, Sørensen was loaned out to Norwegian club HamKam until the end of the year. Two days later, he made his Eliteserien debut against Lillestrøm SK. However, Midtjylland decided to recall Sørensen on 16 June 2022, presumably due to lack of playing time. Sørensen managed to play just 275 minutes over 6 matches.
Back at Midtjylland
After a season where Sørensen was a big part of Midtjylland's success, winning the 2023–24 Danish Superliga title, the Dane was named FC Midtjylland's Player of the Year and Find of the Year.
Parma
On 12 August 2025, Sørensen signed a five-season contract with Parma in Italy.
Loan to Celtic
On 1 September 2026, Sørensen signed on loan with Celtic in Scotland until the end of the season with an option to buy. Sørensen made his Celtic debut the following day, appearing as a substitute in a 3–0 win over Aberdeen.
International career
Sørensen represented Denmark at the 2025 UEFA European Under-21 Championship, where they reached quarter-finals.
