Jacob Tjørnelund (born 31 December 1991) is a Danish professional footballer who plays as a left-back.
Career
Tjørnelund progressed through the youth academy of SønderjyskE, where he made his professional debut on 16 October 2010 at age 18 in a 1–0 home win over AaB in the Danish Superliga. [3] He came on as a substitute for Kenneth Fabricius. [4] After three years as part of the SønderjyskE first team, his contract expired in December 2013. [4]

Det er fire gode drenge, som forlader Hobro IK. De har alle ydet en kæmpe indsats for klubben og har alle en stor andel i klubbens fremgang de sidste par år og ikke mindst i oprykningen denne sæson.
