Club Career

Born in Sjunkeby, after playing youth football for Danish club HB Koge, Sorensen became Koge's youngest ever player after coming on as a late substitute against Silkeborg on 8 May 2016 at the age of 16. In the summer of 2016, following a trial period, Sorensen signed for Newcastle United. In January 2019, Sorensen signed on loan for Blackpool. Whilst with Blackpool he continued to also play for the Newcastle under-23 team. Despite Blackpool manager Terry McPhillips suggesting he would play more games, he was recalled by Newcastle in March after making just one appearance for the club.

He then joined League Two side Carlisle United on 16 August 2019 on a loan deal until the end of the 2019–20 season. The loan was cut short on 20 December 2019 by Newcastle.

In October 2020 he moved on loan to Dutch club Almere City.

He returned to Denmark in July 2021, signing for Esbjerg.
