Career

A defender from her days in schools football,[2] Pleidrup played for Brøndby IF's first team from December 2017 to 2022,[3] and joined Italian Serie A Femminile side Sassuolo in the summer of the latter year, citing the extra physicality of the Italian league as an attractive factor in her move.[2]

After finishing sixth with her new club in 2023, Pleidrup enjoyed a fourth-place finish with Sassuolo in 2024.

Pleidrup has won 38 caps at underage level for Denmark, 19 of them at Under-19 level.
