Mikkel Kallesøe Andreasen (born 20 April 1997) is a Danish professional footballer who plays as a right-back for Danish 1st Division club AC Horsens.

Club career

Randers FC

In the summer 2014, Kallesøe got promoted to the first team squad, at age 17, after signing a three-year professional- and full-time contract with the Randers.[1]

On 26 October 2014, Kallesøe got his debut for Randers FC, at age 17.[2] Kallesøe started on the bench, but replaced Kasper Fisker in the 80nd minute in a 3–0 victory against OB.

In October 2016 in a match between Randers and Lyngby Boldklub, Kallesøe suffered a horrible concussion, which was the fifth concussion in his career. The concussion kept Kallesøe sidelined for 6 months and was close to making an end of his football career.[3] Since this incident, Kallesøe has played with either a helmet or a special headband.

Loan to Viborg FF

On 31 August 2017, Kallesøe was loaned out to Viborg FF for the rest of 2017.[4] Kallesøe made 12 appearances for Viborg, and despite the club expressing an interest in keeping him for longer, Kallesøe and Randers agreed on his return to the club from January 2018.[5]

Return to Randers

Kallesøe signed a contract extension until 2023 with Randers on 4 January 2019. His deal was extended further on 21 September 2021, as he signed a five-year contract until 2016.[6]

AC Horsens

On July 6, 2024, the Danish 1st Division club AC Horsens confirmed that Kallesøe joined the club on a contract until June 2027.[7] He got his debut on July 21, 2024, in a league game against FC Fredericia.[8]
