Nikolas Langberg Dyhr (born 18 June 2001) is a Danish professional footballer who plays as a left-back for Danish Superliga side Randers.[3]
Career
[edit]Dyhr started playing football at local club, Stensballe IK, with his father as the coach. At the age of 11, he joined the U13 squad of AC Horsens and became the player of the year on the team.[4] Dyhr then moved to FC Midtjylland as a U15 player in 2015. In July 2016, he signed a three-year youth contract and was promoted to the U17 squad.
In September 2018, 17-year old Dyhr was on the bench for Midtjylland in a Danish Cup game against Dalum IF.[5] On 20 June 2019, two days after his 18th birthday, Dyhr signed a five-year professional contract with Midtjylland and was promoted permanently to the first team squad.[6] On 11 August 2019, Dyhr got his official debut against his former club, AC Horsens, in the Danish Superliga.[7] Dyhr played the entire game which Midtjylland won 2-0.
To find more continuity, Dyhr was loaned out to AC Horsens on 17 January 2021 for the rest of the season.[8] He then played two years back at Midtjylland, before joining Belgian Pro League club KV Kortrijk on 30 January 2023: a loan deal until the end of the season.[9]
On 8 January 2024 it was confirmed that Major League Soccer club St. Louis City SC had acquired Dyhr, who signed a three-year deal with an option for an additional year.[10] Six months later, Dyhr was sold to Danish Superliga side Randers FC on a four-year deal.[11][12]
