[edit] Club Career

Askou began his career at Ikast FS before moving to Holstebro BK in 2002. His performances led to a contract with 1st Division Silkeborg IF in the summer of 2003, following a successful trial. He helped the club regain promotion to the Danish Superliga during his first season, and became a regular for four years. In 2007, Askou failed to agree a new deal with SIF, which led to a move to Turkish football with Kasımpaşa.

Kasımpaşa finished bottom of the 2007–08 Süper Lig, with Askou appearing frequently and scoring twice. However, despite Askou's own goal in the play-offs semi-final, the club returned to the top flight at the first attempt in 2008–09. His contract was not renewed the following summer.

In July 2009, Askou linked up with English League One club Norwich City on their pre-season tour of Scotland. He impressed suitably with his defensive displays in the club's friendly matches, also managing to score with a header against Airdrie United.[1] Then manager Bryan Gunn confirmed on 27 July he had offered Askou a contract.[2] It was revealed on 30 July that Askou had signed a two-year deal with Norwich.[3] He made his debut in a 4–0 win over Yeovil Town in the League Cup on 11 August, helping to keep a clean sheet. Four days later, he scored on his league debut as Norwich drew 1–1 with Exeter City. Jens Berthel Askou has become a regular starter at Norwich and has formed a solid partnership with Gary Doherty.[4]
