Clement Mutahi Bischoff (born 16 December 2005) is a Danish professional footballer who plays as a left winger and left midfielder for Eredivisie club NEC, on loan from the Austrian Bundesliga club Red Bull Salzburg.

Club career

Brøndby

Bischoff started playing football for Amager-based clubs Sundby Boldklub and AC Academy (shared academy of B1908 and Fremad Amager) before joining Brøndby's academy in January 2022. He signed a two-year contract and became part of the under-17 team. After impressing early on, he extended his contract until 2024 in May 2022.

Prior to the 2023–24 season, Bischoff joined Brøndby's first team in pre-season training camp alongside Ludwig Vraa and Noah Nartey. On 27 September 2023, Bischoff made his professional debut, replacing Marko Divković at left-back in the 68th minute of a 3–0 Danish Cup win over HIK. On 9 November 2023, he extended his contract with the club until 2026. His Danish Superliga debut followed after the winter break, coming off the bench in the 85th minute for Sebastian Sebulonsen in a 3–0 away victory against OB on 25 February 2024.

On 21 July 2024, Bischoff scored his first professional goal in Brøndby's season opener away against Viborg in a 3–3 away draw. This also marked his first start for the club's first team. Four days later, he made his European debut, starting against Kosovan club Llapi in a 6–0 victory at home in the UEFA Conference League second qualifying round. Bischoff became an established starter at left-back under head coach Jesper Sørensen at the start of the season.

Red Bull Salzburg

On 2 September 2025, Austrian Bundesliga side Red Bull Salzburg announced the signing of Bischoff on a four-year contract. The fee was officially undisclosed, though media outlets reported it to be around €4 million. The move reunited him with former Brøndby captain Jacob Rasmussen, who had joined Salzburg earlier in the transfer window.

After starting the season with regular appearances as a substitute and occasional starts, he was suspended from the first team in March 2026 until the end of the 2025–26 season following a disciplinary incident in training involving manager Daniel Beichler.

Loan to NEC

On 22 July 2026, Bischoff moved on loan to Eredivisie club NEC in the Netherlands, with an option to buy.

International career

Bischoff made his Denmark U19 debut on 7 September 2023, coming on as a substitute for Noah Sahsah in a 3–1 friendly win over Poland U19. In the subsequent match on 10 September, he earned his first start and scored his debut goal for Denmark, despite their 2–1 loss to Norway U19.

Personal life

He is of Kenyan descent through his paternal grandfather and his uncle is former Brøndby and Manchester City player Mikkel Bischoff. His cousin is the Brøndby IF women's player Mila Bischoff.
