Justin Che isn’t set to be part of Brondby’s plans for the 2025-26 European season.
Che is set to depart the Danish club this summer, with clubs in the Austrian Bundesliga and Dutch Eredivisie both interested, sources confirmed to SBI. The former FC Dallas academy product joined Brondby back in 2024, but has since only made one appearance for the club.
He spent the second part of last season on loan at Belgian second-tier side Patro Eisden, making 15 appearances for the club.
A former U.S. youth national team defender, Che has bounced around in Europe since his original move there. He spent time with Hoffenheim’s first and second teams, Bayern Munich II, and ADO Den Haag.
His most prominent playing time came with Den Haag in the Eredivisie, totaling two assists in 23 appearances. Che also made 15 appearances for FC Dallas and 16 appearances for then-USL affiliate, North Texas SC.
A versatile full back, Che featured 10 times for the U.S. Under-20 men’s national team, including making four appearances at the 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup. He has yet to earn a senior cap for the USMNT.
Che has made the bench on four occasions for Brondby during the early stages of this season, which has also included in UEFA Conference League qualifying.
The Summer Transfer Window closes for Eredivisie clubs on September 1 while Austrian Bundesliga teams have an additional four days to do business before the window closes for them on Sept. 5.
