Club career

He played as an amateur for Kjøbenhavns Boldklub (KB) in Denmark, and became topscorer in the 1st Division in 1961 and 1964. He moved abroad to play professionally for Aberdeen in Scotland in 1965,[http://www.afcheritage.org/Team/CurrentSquad/player_show.cfm?player_id=474&Season=1965-66 Aberdeen career stats] - AFC Heritage after being signed by Tommy Pearson alongside compatriots Jens Petersen and Leif Mortensen.[http://aberdeenvoice.com/tag/ian-taylor/ Jens Petersen 1941-2012] - Aberdeen Voice

One and a half years later he returned to his native country. After a two years penalty for having played as a professional (mandatory in these years' Danish football), he continued to play for KB some years.
