Career

Villadsen began playing football seriously around the age of ten at his local club Blovstrød IF, where his father was a coach. After being scouted by FC Nordsjælland, he spent a short period at Slangerup OIF before joining Nordsjælland's youth setup.[3] He signed a youth contract with the club on his 15th birthday in November 2016,[3] and in October 2017 agreed a further contract.[4]

In July 2019, Villadsen was promoted to the first-team squad and signed a professional contract.[5] He made his Danish Superliga debut on 11 August 2019 against Silkeborg IF, playing the closing stages.[6]

On 12 August 2024, Villadsen signed for German 2. Bundesliga club 1. FC Nürnberg.[7]

After a single season in Germany, it was confirmed on 17 July 2025 that Villadsen was returning to Denmark, having signed a contract with Brøndby running until June 2029.[8][9]
