Early and personal life

Norouzi was born in Copenhagen. [4] He also holds Iranian nationality. [5]

Club career

He came through the youth ranks of Brøndby, and was team captain during his youth team years. [6]

He was promoted to the Brøndby senior team in Autumn 2011, but shoulder and knee injuries prevented his debut. [6] Norouzi found himself third in the left back pecking-order, behind Danish international Thomas Rasmussen and Jan Frederiksen. In the Winter break of the 2011-12 Danish Superliga season, Rasmussen left the club, while Frederiksen sustained an injury, and Norouzi was poised to claim the left back position as his own. [7] Norouzi made his senior debut in March 2012, and played 12 of 15 games in the second half of the 2011–12 Superliga season. [8]

He signed a season-long loan contract with Vejle Boldklub in July 2013. [9] [10]

He signed a one-year contract with Iranian club Sepahan on 16 June 2016. [11] However, due to Iranian military rules, he could not get the permission to play in the Persian Gulf Pro League. On 7 August 2016, he ended his contract with Sepahan. [12]

He then played for Næstved and Helsingør. [13]

On 18 September 2024, he announced his retirement. [14]

International career

Norouzi made his youth international debut for the Denmark national under-16 football team in September 2007. [15] He played his first competitive international game in the 2009 UEFA European Under-17 Football Championship qualifying round in September 2008. [16]

He has played a total of 31 games for various Danish national youth teams, including two games for the Denmark national under-20 football team. [15]

Norouzi was born to Iranian parents and is eligible to play for the Iran national football team. [17]

Playing style

Norouzi was described by first club Brøndby as an aggressive left back. [6]
