Youth

[edit]

Born in Greve Strand, Bruus joined the Brøndby IF youth academy in 2005. He combined this with education at first Krogårdsskolen in his hometown of Greve,[1] and later secondary school at Albertslund Gymnasium together with fellow Brøndby talents Casper Hauervig and Christian Enemark.[2]

On 25 October 2017, Bruus signed his first professional contract with Brøndby IF, a two-and-a-half-year deal which tied him to the club until the summer of 2019. He was included in the first team squad from 1 January 2018.[3] He made his Brøndby debut at the age of 18 when he was brought on for the final ten minutes in the 2–2 home draw against AGF on 10 December 2017.[4]

Loan to Roskilde

[edit]

Bruus signed a new three-year contract on 31 August 2018 with Brøndby before joining Danish second tier club FC Roskilde on loan until the end of the 2018–19 season.[5][6] He scored four goals in 24 appearances during his spell,[7] including a brace against Nykøbing FC in a 5–0 away win.[8]

Return to Brøndby

[edit]

Bruus returned to Brøndby after his loan, but failed to make any appearances during the fall of the 2019–20 season under new manager Niels Frederiksen.[9] In January 2020, he appeared as a right wing-back in friendlies against BK Avarta and Hvidovre IF indicating a new, more defensive role for him in Brøndby after having mostly played as a striker before.[10] He continued in this role in friendlies against Lyngby and Hvidovre,[11] and was called up for the first team in their first match, after the COVID-19 pandemic had suspended the competition, on 2 June 2020 for the match against SønderjyskE.[12] Bruus came on as a substitute for an injured Kevin Mensah with 20 minutes remaining.[13][14]

On 19 July, Bruus signed a new contract to keep him at the club until 2023,[15] after having established himself as a starter at the right wing-back position in head coach Frederiksen's 3–5–2 formation.[10][16] A few months later, on 24 October 2020, Bruus scored his first goal for Brøndby in a 3–2 home loss to Midtjylland.[17][18]

Bruus made his European debut for the club on 17 August 2022 in a 2–1 away loss to Red Bull Salzburg in the first leg of the play-off round of the UEFA Champions League.[19]

Troyes

[edit]

Bruus joined Ligue 1 club Troyes on 18 July 2022, signing a five-year contract.[20][21] He made his competitive debut for the club on 7 August, starting at right-back and providing an assist in a 3–2 away loss to Montpellier.[22] In the following league match against Toulouse, he fell out with a knee injury, sidelining him for the following weeks.[23]

On 2 September 2024 the Danish Superliga side AaB confirmed that Bruus joined the club on a loan deal until the end of the 2024-25 season.[24]
