Stefan Gartenmann (born 2 February 1997) is a Danish professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Scottish Premiership club Aberdeen, on loan from Danish Superliga club Midtjylland.

Club career[edit]

Heerenveen[edit]

Gartenmann moved from the youth academy of FC Roskilde to Dutch club SC Heerenveen in July 2013 – Roskilde's first transfer to a club outside of Denmark – and he initially became a part of the youth teams of the Frisian club.[3] 24 August 2015, Gartenmann made his first appearance as a second-half substitute in the reserves of Heerenveen in a 2–0 win in the Beloften Eredivisie over ADO Den Haag.[4] On 14 September, he scored his first goal for the second team of Heerenveen in a 1–1 draw against the PEC Zwolle reserves with the goal to secure the final score.[5]

Gartenmann signed his first professional contract on 26 October 2015, a three-year contract.[6] However, during his time with the club he did not manage to make an appearance for the senior team in the Eredivisie.[7]

Sønderjyske[edit]

On 5 May 2017, it was announced that Gartenmann would return to Denmark for the 2017–18 season, as he had joined the Danish Superliga club Sønderjyske on a three-year contract.[8][9] On 7 August 2017, he made his professional debut when he came on as a late substitute for Troels Kløve in a 3–0 win on matchday two of the regular season against AGF.[10] He scored his first goal for Sønderjyske on 28 November 2017 in a 4–1 victory in the round of 16 of the Danish Cup competition against third-tier Danish 2nd Division club Jammerbugt.[11]

On 1 July 2020, Gartenmann was part of the Sønderjyske team winning the 2019–20 Danish Cup by beating AaB in a 2–0 win. The win marked the first trophy in club history.[12] In May 2022 it was confirmed, that Gartenmann would leave the club, as his contract was expiring.[13]

Midtjylland[edit]

On 28 June 2022 it was confirmed, that FC Midtjylland had signed Gartenmann on a free transfer, with the player signing a deal until June 2025.[14]

On 1 September 2023, Gartenmann joined Aberdeen FC on loan for the rest of the 2023–24 season.[15]

International career[edit]

On 2 October 2012, Gartenmann played for the first time for the Denmark under-16 team in a 4–2 win in a test match in Lhota, Kladno against the Czech Republic.[16] He was used in nine games at under-16 level. On 5 August 2013, he gained his first of eleven total caps for Denmark at under-17 level in a 4–0 win during a tournament in Norway against Sweden.[17] After he was not used for Denmark under-18, Gartenmann finally appeared in his first game for the Denmark under-19 on 4 September 2014 in a 2–1 win in the friendly against Norway in Lyngdal. In this game he scored his first goal for this age group with the goal to 2–0.[18] The qualification for the 2016 UEFA European Under-19 Championship was missed; Gartenmann played his last game on 15 November 2015 in a goalless draw in the European Championship qualifier against Israel in Hamrun, Malta.[19] On 7 October 2017, Gartenmann played his last of six games for the under-20 team, in a 2–2 draw in a friendly against Sweden in Södra Sandby.
