Career

Viborg

Bech started playing football at the age of four and played for a few clubs, before joining Viborg FF as a youth player. In August 2015, he scored a hattrick at the age of 15 for the U17's.[8] Later in October, he signed a contract until June 2021 with the club.[9] On 11 March 2018, Bech was noted in the history books when he made his Danish 1st Division debut, making him the youngest player ever to play in the league. Bech was 16 years and 20 days old on his debut.[10] Bech was also the youngest player ever to debut for Viborg FF, taking over the record from his own cousin, Oliver Haurits.

Ingolstadt 04

After failing to agree on a contract extension with Viborg, it was confirmed on 5 August 2022 that Bech had been sold to German 3. Liga club FC Ingolstadt 04, signing a contract until June 2025.[11]

AGF

After one season in Germany, Bech returned to Denmark, signing a five-year deal on 26 June 2023, with AGF.[12] He scored on his debut for the club, securing a 1–0 victory against rivals Vejle on the first matchday of the season.[13][14]

Personal life

Bech was diagnosed with ADHD, which prevented him from playing with the Danish youth national teams.[1]
