Karen Klokker Poulsen (born 15 February 2002) is a Danish handball player who currently plays for Silkeborg-Voel KFUM and the Danish national team.[1]
Playing career
She started her career at Kerteminde and Odense. At Skanderborg Håndbold, she made her senior debut in the 2021-22 season. In her first season she played 5 matches, scoring two goals.[2] The following season she joined Randers HK.[3] Here she would however not play for long, as Randers went bankrupt the same season. She then joined Viborg HK on an amateur contract for the rest of the season.[4] Due to lack of playing time at Viborg HK, and when Silkeborg-Voel KFUM was lacking a line player, when Line Skak was out with pregnancy leave, she joined Silkeborg-Voel on loan.[5] In November 2024, while she was on loan at Silkeborg-Voel, it was announced that Ikast Håndbold had bought Klokker out of her contract at Viborg HK. She then signed a three-year deal with Ikast Håndbold starting from the 2025–26 season.[6] Her contract with Viborg HK went until 2026.[7]
While she was on loan at Silkeborg-Voel KFUM she was called up to the Danish national team for the first time for the Golden League in March 2025.[7] She made her debut on March 6, 2025, in a 29–26 win against Norway.[1]
