Olti Hyseni

Olti Hyseni (born 17 July 2007) is a Danish footballer who plays as a left winger for Danish Superliga club Brøndby.

Club career Sønderjyske Hyseni joined Sønderjyske's academy as an U-13 player from FC Sønderborg, but after two years of driving long distances on a daily basis, he moved closer to the club. Here he worked his way up through the club's youth academy and in the summer of 2022, on his 15th birthday, he signed his first contract with the club.

On 27 October 2023, 16-year-old Hyseni made his debut for Sønderjyske where he came on in the 80th minute and set up the 4–0 goal five minutes later in minute 85. in a Danish 1st Division match against B.93. With his 16 years, three months and ten days of age, Hyseni became the second youngest debutant ever for Sønderjyske.

Hyseni scored his first professional goal in a win against Næstved Boldklub on 24 November 2023, where he scored the last goal of the match as a substitute for the final score of 4–1. The goal made him the youngest player in Sønderjyske Football's history to score a professional goal at the age of 16 years, four months and seven days. He took over the record from Simon Poulsen who scored in a cup match for Sønderjyske at the age of 16 years and 11 months in 2001.

On 28 December 2023, he signed his first full-time contract with Sønderjyske until June 2026, and was promoted to the first team squad at the same time.

In August 2025, after a strong start to the 2025–26 season, 18-year-old Hyseni extended his contract until June 2029.

Brøndby On 31 July 2026, Hyseni joined Danish Superliga club Brøndby on a five-year contract running until June 2031. The move reunited him with Thomas Nørgaard, who had coached him at Sønderjyske and had taken charge of Brøndby earlier in 2026. In his debut for Brøndby he scored the only goal in 1–0 win against Viborg FF.

International career In May 2025, Hyseni was selected for Denmark's U19 squad for the 2025 UEFA European Under-19 Championship in Romania. This is the first time he has been selected for the U19 team.

Personal life Both Hyseni's parents are from Kosovo, but he was born in Denmark and grew up in Sønderborg. Hyseni can therefore represent Denmark, Kosovo and Albania's national team.

Hyseni's mother came to Denmark in 1999, while his fathers residence permit was granted in 2007, the day before Olti was born. Both were refugees from Kosovo.
