Career

Brøndby

First team

On 25 October 2017, Bruus signed his first professional contract with Brøndby IF, a two-and-a-half-year deal tying him to the club until the summer of 2019. He was included in the first team squad from 1 January 2018.[1]

He made his Brøndby debut at the age of 18 when he was brought on for the final ten minutes in the 2–2 home draw against AGF on 10 December 2017.[2]

Loan to Roskilde

Bruus signed a new three-year contract on 31 August 2018 with Brøndby before joining Danish second tier club FC Roskilde on loan until the end of the 2018–19 season.[3][4] He scored four goals in 24 appearances during his spell,[5] including a brace against Nykøbing FC in a 5–0 away win.[6]

Return to Brøndby

Bruus returned to Brøndby after his loan, but failed to make any appearances during the fall of the 2019–20 season under new manager Niels Frederiksen.[7]

In January 2020, he appeared as a right wing-back in friendlies against BK Avarta and Hvidovre IF indicating a new, more defensive role for him in Brøndby.[8] He continued in this role in friendlies against Lyngby and Hvidovre,[9] and was called up for the first team in their first match, after the COVID-19 pandemic had suspended the competition, on 2 June 2020 for the match against SønderjyskE.[10] Bruus came on as a substitute for an injured Kevin Mensah with 20 minutes remaining.[11][12] On 19 July, Bruus signed a new contract to keep him at the club until 2023,[13] after having established himself as a starter at the right wing-back position in head coach Frederiksen's 3–5–2 formation.[8][14]
