Player description
Jensen, an attacking and goalscoring midfielder who made his mark at Danish club Lyngby, was brought to England by former Bolton Wanderers manager Colin Todd.
His fine performances, workrate and technical skill brought him to the attention of a host of other clubs and he proved a stylish link with the Bolton forwards, creating plenty of goals.
Alan Curbishley won the race to land the Danish Under-21 international, paying £4million to bring him to The Valley in the summer of 2000.
Jensen made his debut in a fine 4-0 victory over Manchester City, and netted his first goal in a 2-2 draw at Derby County.
However, he will best remember his strike in a 4-2 win AT Highbury in November 2001. It was a superb effort which flew into the corner of the net from a tight angle and almost earned the tag of 'goal of the season' for the Premiership.
Jensen had many injury problems throughout the 2001/02 campaign, however. He still made Denmark's squad for the 2002 World Cup finals.
He remained a vital Addicks star throughout 2002/03 and 2003/04, passing 100 Premiership starts for the club - although found himself on the bench at times during the latter campaign. The midfield star was named in Denmark's squad for Euro 2004, featuring in three games.
On his return to England he was surprisingly on the move, joining Fulham for £1.25million in July 2004. Jensen had scored 17 goals in 134 games for Charlton.
He made his Fulham debut in a 1-1 draw at Manchester City.
