Biography

Simon Poulsen started his senior career for HFK Sønderjylland in the secondary Danish 1st Division in 2002. He was called up for the Danish under-19 national team in September 2002, and went on to play a combined 25 games and score one goal for various Danish youth selections. He played four seasons at HFK Sønderjylland. The club changed its name to SønderjyskE in 2003, and Poulsen helped SønderjyskE win promotion for the Danish Superliga in 2005.

In June 2005, he agreed to move to league rivals FC Midtjylland (FCM) a year later; at the end of the 2005-06 Superliga season. SønderjyskE complained about the tapping-up of Poulsen to the Danish Football Association, but agreed to let Poulsen go in August 2005. Having played five Superliga games for SønderjyskE, Poulsen went to FCM, with Thomas Rathe switching from FCM to SønderjyskE as a replacement. In May 2006, Poulsen was selected for the Danish under-21 national team squad for the 2006 European Under-21 Championship. In all, he played 11 games and scored one goal for the Danish under-21 national team.

He was also called up for the Danish league national team, which played a number of unofficial national team games against the United States, El Salvador and Honduras in January 2007. Poulsen was called up for the Danish national team in March 2007, by national team manager Morten Olsen. He made his national team debut in a friendly match against Germany.

On December 23 2007, Poulsen transferred to Dutch side AZ Alkmaar for a record-breaking fee of 3,000,000€ [cite web |url=http://www.bt.dk/article/20071223/sport01/712230305/ |title=Rekord-Poulsen: Solgt for 24 millioner |author=TMJ |date=2007-12-23 |accessdate=2007-12-23 |publisher=B.T. |language=Danish ] and now he plays for AZ Alkmaar till 2012.
