Biography

Fredgaard started his career with Lyngby Boldklub, whom he represented on the national under-19 and under-21 national teams. He scored 16 goals in the 1998-99 Superliga season, which prompted English club Sunderland AFC to offer Lyngby a £ 1,500,000 million transfer deal. Fredgaard signed his first full-time professional contract at age 22, when he moved to Sunderland for the 1999-00 season. His time at Sunderland was not successful, as he only made a single appearance in the English Premier League.Despite soem impressive worthington cup showings that saw him score two brilliant goals against walsall,and in the next round a perfect cross for a Danny Dichio goal, Reid never called on the dane even in times of crisis. In February 2000, he was loaned out to Division One side West Bromwich Albion. Back at Sunderland for the 2000-01 season, he was once more loaned out to a Division One team, this time playing for Bolton Wanderers.

In July 2001, Fredgaard moved back to Denmark, as F.C. Copenhagen bought him in a £ 500,000 transfer deal. [cite news

When his contract with F.C. Copenhagen expired in January 2006, he moved to lower-league Danish 1st Division club Randers FC on a free transfer, signing a two-year contract.
