Alexander Jensen has today left the club to join Allsvenskan side IF Elfsborg for an undisclosed fee.

The 24-year-old arrived at Pittodrie from IF Brommapojkarna in January 2025 and went on to make 55 appearances for Aberdeen, scoring one goal.

The Dane's crowning moment for the Dons came just four months later with his performance in the Scottish Cup Final victory over Celtic, where he formed part of a five-man defensive red wall that held firm to lift the trophy for the first time in 35 years.

Aberdeen boss Stephen Robinson said: "We received a good offer from Elfsborg for Alex and it's one we all felt was right.

"Alex is a great lad who always gave his best for the Club, but I was honest with him in saying that he probably wouldn't be an automatic starter next season.

“There is already strong competition in that area of the pitch with Nicky Devlin and Dylan Lobban, while both Lewis Mayo and Brad Lyons are also comfortable playing there.

"Despite that, Alex has continued to train brilliantly and conduct himself in an exemplary manner. I can't speak highly enough of his professionalism.

"He leaves with a Scottish Cup winner's medal and the thanks of everyone at Pittodrie and Cormack Park. We wish him every success back in Sweden."

Alex said: "I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at Aberdeen and the memories of winning the Scottish Cup will last a lifetime.

"I had a good opportunity to return to the Allsvenskan with Elfsborg, and I think the move works well for both parties.

"I want to thank the supporters for their backing and all the staff and players at the Club. I wish everyone associated with AFC the very best for the future."
