Philip Billing, a Danish footballer born on 11 June 1996, currently graces the football pitch as a central midfielder for FC Midtjylland. With his impressive stature of 6ft 5in (1.97m) and weighing a substantial 12st 8lb (80kg), he's an imposing figure at the heart of the battlefield. The number 8 is emblazoned on his jersey, a testament to his central role in the sport.
As per the statistics furnished by Transfermarkt, Billing's current market worth hovers around a respectable £8.5m.
July 2013 marks a pivotal period in Billing's career wherein he joined Huddersfield Town in England's League One. His debut season, although full of potential, saw him take to the pitch for a solitary league match. As time passed, Billing's involvement increased and by the 2015 - 2016 season, he was making his mark with 13 appearances and one goal. His best seasons followed in 2016 - 2017 and 2018 - 2019, wherein he played 24 and 27 matches respectively, scoring twice in each.
In July 2019, Billing undertook a significant career move transferring from Huddersfield Town to Bournemouth, a Premier League football club, for a sum of approximately £15m. His tenure at Bournemouth was marked by consistent performances, peaking in the 2021 - 2022 season with 40 appearances and ten goals. His last season saw him play ten matches for the club.
January 2025 heralded a sojourn to Italy for Billing, going on loan to Serie A side, Napoli. He managed to net his first goal for the side within his ten appearances during the latter half of the 2024 - 2025 season. This brief Italian escapade culminated in June 2025, and Billing returned to Bournemouth. His comeback, though marked by dutiful performances, was short-lived.
In August 2025, a professional decision led Billing back to his homeland, joining FC Midtjylland in Denmark's Superliga after leaving Bournemouth that summer for a fee of around £4.3m. His current season at FC Midtjylland promises a positive trajectory with seven appearances and one goal to his name so far.
In his latest endeavour, Billing showcased his prowess in the Europa League 2025 - 2026 for FC Midtjylland, leaving a mark with a goal in three starts.
