Anders Hunsballe (born 12 September 1992) is a Danish footballer who plays as a central midfielder for Denmark Series club Slagelse B&I.

In September 2018, he made his debut for the Denmark national team, as the regular squad withdrew following a players' union dispute.

Club career

Vestsjælland

Anders Hunsballe began at the academy of Slagelse B&I, and he made his senior debut for the now defunct Danish 1st Division club Vestsjælland in 2011 as a youth player; he left the club after one season.[3]

Greve Foldbold

He then joined Greve Fodbold at the beginning of the 2012–13 season.[3][4] He was club captain and operated as both a defensive midfielder and a holding midfielder.[5]

Hunsballe was part of the squad that won promotion to the Danish 2nd Division (3rd tier) following the 2015–16 season,[3] and he was also part of the squad that was relegated back to the Denmark Series (4th tier) after the 2017–18 season.[6] He scored his earliest known goal for the club on 18 September 2018 during the 3–2 loss against Herlev IF.[7]

He also played in the 2023–24 Danish Cup,[8] and he suffered an injury on 4 May 2024 during the 4–2 away victory against Slagelse B&I which would be his last match for Greve Foldbold.[9]

Slagelse B&I

Hunsballe re-joined Slagelse B&I on 15 February 2025. He was given shirt number 20,[2] and he moved to a more attacking role in midfield.

He made his debut on 13 March 2025 during the 2–0 victory against Tune IF,[10] and he scored his first goal for the club on 2 May 2025 during the 11–0 victory against Nykøbing FC.[11]

International career

In September 2018, the Danish Football Association and players' union were scheduled to sign a new national team agreement for the players of the Denmark national team prior to a friendly against Slovakia and their opening UEFA Nations League match against Wales.[12] However, a contract dispute arose regarding the commercial rights of the players, resulting in a failure to sign a new agreement.[13] Despite an offer from the squad to extend the previous deal to allow for further negotiations, the DBU instead named an entirely uncapped squad under the temporary management of coach John Jensen to avoid punishment from UEFA for cancelling the matches.[14][15][16] The squad consisted of a mixture of players from the Danish 2nd Division and the Denmark Series (the third and fourth tier of Danish football respectively), along with futsal players from the Denmark national futsal team.[17][18]

On 4 September 2018, Hunsballe was one of 24 players to be named in the replacement squad.[19] The following day, he made his international debut in the friendly match against Slovakia, coming on as a substitute at half-time for Christian Bannis. The match finished as a 0–3 away loss.[20]
