Jesper Jensen will return to Esbjerg in summer 2027, FTC confirmed on 29 October. Ferencváros had already accepted his request to leave early for family reasons; his next destination is now confirmed.

Two imminent meetings with his future club

The official schedule lists Champions League meetings in Esbjerg on 8 November and in Érd on 15 November, both at 14:00 Budapest time.

That gives the announcement a distinctive setting: Jensen’s immediate task remains preparing FTC to face his future employer. The summer arrangement does not mean an immediate coaching change. Supporters have two timelines to follow: this season’s results and next summer’s handover.
