Kris Stadsgaard

Farum and Nordsjælland

Born in Copenhagen, Denmark, Stadsgaard began his career at Farum, where he started his career since joining them in 2001 and progressed through the ranks. Stadsgaard made his Danish Superliga debut for Farum in the 2002–03 Danish Superliga season, playing alongside Rasmus Marvits in central–defence position, in a 5–1 loss against Silkeborg on 28 April 2003. At the end of the season, he signed a two–year contract extension, keeping him until 2005. He stayed with the team when Farum BK changed its name to Nordsjælland in summer 2003. After making five appearances in the 2003–04 season, Stadsgaard had a first team chance following the injury of the club's captain Jacob Rasmussen and from that moment on, Stadsgaard managed to play his way into the Nordsjælland team in the 2004–05 season. As the 2004–05 season progressed, he went on to make twenty–one appearances in all competitions. As a result of his performance, Stadsgaard was rewarded with a contract extension, signing a four–year contract. However, Stadgaard's first team opportunities was limited for the next two seasons, as he suffered injuries and made eight appearances as a result. In the 2007–08 season, Stadsgaard was given a handful of first appearances and since the start of the season, he went on to make six appearances.

Reggina

In August 2012 Stadsgaard signed with Italian Serie A team Reggina who paid a transfer fee of 10 million DKK (€1.5 million) to Nordsjælland, including…

In 2005, Stadsgaard played two matches for the Denmark under 20 team. Four years on, Stadsgaard was called up by the senior national team for the first time. On 12 August 2009, he debuted for the Denmark national team against Chile. Playing out of position as a left back, he was directly involved in Chile's second goal, only a minute after his entrance. Despite the error, Rosenberg then Manager Erik Hamrén hoped that Stadsgaaard could be in the squad for the FIFA World Cup. However, Stadsgaard did not make the cut. Stadsgaard was not recalled for the national team until November 2010, deputizing for the injured Bo Svensson and Simon Kjær in a friendly game against the Czech Republic. He replaced Mathias Jørgensen in the central defence at half-time, in a game that ultimately ended a 0–0 draw.

Stadsgaard is engaged to his long-term girlfriend, Michella Moengaard. Stadsgaard said his girlfriend speaks Spanish and helped him to speak the language following his move to Málaga.
