A few days before New Years Evening in 2008, F.C. Copenhagen and Esbjerg fB agreed on a transfer of Danish International Martin Vingaard. This meant that Vingaard from January 1st 2009 has been part of the Lions from Copenhagen. His contract expires in the summer of 2012.

Martin Vingaard started his career in B1913 from Odense where he played two seasons. In 2005 he joined Esbjerg fB in the Danish SAS League. In his opening season in the blue and white Esbjerg-jersey, he only got to play a few matches, but from the start of the second season, he was a regular in the line-up, and when he left the club, he could look back at 92 matches for Esbjerg fB.

On top of being a very good midfielder, he is also a very dangerous man in front of goal, which his 18 goals for Esbjerg proves. Even the home crowd in PARKEN will know that Vingaard is a goalscoring midfielder, as he back in 2007 scored one of Esbjerg’s goals in their 2-1 win over F.C. Copenhagen.

Martin Vingaard’s real breakthrough came in 2008, where he was voted “best SAS League player” for his performances in the last part of the 2007/08-season. On top of this, he made his debut for the Danish A-National Team against Holland in a 1-1-draw Eindhoven. A few days later, he played his second International and scored his first goal for Denmark, when he gave Denmark a 1-0 lead against Poland.

As a midfielder, Martin Vingaard has all the skills F.C. Copenhagen wants. He is a very “flexible” player who can play any position in midfield – and as he is a very offensive player, who scores quite some goals, there is every reason to believe that Martin Vingaard will be a success in F.C. Copenhagen.
