Brentford winger Mikkel Damsgaard has rejected his Danish critics.

Damsgaard call-up to Denmark this week has drawn criticism from home.

But he told TV 2: "It is of course a shame when so many questions are raised about one's selection, but I hope that I can show that there is no reason to question my selection."

Damsgaard, who has not scored since the semi-final against England in July 2021, acknowledges that he has not hit his top level for a long time.

"I hope that I can soon get into a rhythm during the EC and find the level that I had. I myself think that it has been some time since I played my best football, so now I really want to have a few good years."
