Simon Makienok

Simon Makienok Christoffersen (Danish pronunciation: [ˈsimɔn maˈkʰiːnʌk]; born 21 November 1990) is a Danish professional footballer who plays for FC St. Pauli in the 2. Bundesliga. He plays as a striker.

Born in Nastved, Makienok began his professional career at Herfolge Boldklub – the later HB Koge – making his debut 13 April 2009, before joining Brondby IF in January 2012 for a fee of €550,000. After a two-and-a-half year spell at Brondby, where the club barely avoided relegation, he was signed by Italian club Palermo for a fee reported to be €2.3 million in August 2014. Palermo then loaned him out to English sides Charlton Athletic and Preston North End, before he signed with Dutch side FC Utrecht in 2017. After two European appearances for the club, he suffered a knee injury which kept him sidelined for two years. He joined Dynamo Dresden in January 2020, where he played for six months.

Makienok has also represented Denmark at senior and several youth levels, gaining his first cap for the senior side on 22 March 2013 as a 85th-minute substitute in a 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Czech Republic which ended in a 3–0 win for Denmark.
