Hvidovre have confirmed the sale of Marius Elvius to Norwegian Eliteserien side Kristiansund BK. The transfer was first reported by Bold.dk on Wednesday, and the club has now officially confirmed the deal.
The club currently sits in a strong second place in the 1. Division with 17 points from seven matches. Their most recent result was a 3-1 away win against Hobro on September 4th, and the team has won four of its last five games. The next challenge is a home fixture against Aalborg on September 12th, which fans can track on our fixtures page.
Who is Marius Elvius?
Marius Elvius is a 24-year-old player who joined Hvidovre last summer from Vejle Boldklub. He spent over three years at Vejle, where he was retrained from a winger to a wingback. Prior to that, he gained experience at HB Køge and had a stint with Italian side Hellas Verona. During his single season with Hvidovre, Elvius made 35 appearances for the club. Under manager Martin Retov, he was primarily deployed on the right side.
What did Martin Retov say about the sale?
Hvidovre manager Martin Retov commented to Bold.dk regarding the departure of the player. "Vi har været vanvittigt glade og stolte over, at Marius valgte os til sidste sommer og har grebet chancen for at udvikle sig," said Retov. He added, "Det har været et flot år for både Marius og for Hvidovre." Retov's comments highlight that the sale is both a loss and an opportunity for the player's career.
Why did Kristiansund BK need a right-back?
The Norwegian club Kristiansund BK had an urgent need for reinforcement on the right side. Earlier in the summer, they sold their right-back Alexander Munksgaard to Sønderjyske. This left a gap in the squad that they now hope Marius Elvius can fill. Elvius's experience playing as a wingback makes him a logical replacement for the departed Munksgaard. The move to the Norwegian top flight offers the young Dane a chance to test himself in a new environment.
How does the sale affect Hvidovre's current form?
The sale comes at a time when Hvidovre are performing exceptionally well. The team has scored 13 goals and conceded only six so far this season, giving them a +7 goal difference. Their recent form of four wins and one draw in the last five matches shows a team on the rise. Fans can monitor the team's league position in our standings overview. Marius Elvius's 35 games for the club demonstrate he was a regular fixture in the lineup. His absence will require other players to step up on the right flank. The club's management now has the opportunity to use the transfer funds to further strengthen the squad. View the full roster on our squad list. Hvidovre face Aalborg at home at Hvidovre Stadion on September 12th, 2026.
