Alexander Bah, born on 9 December 1997 (age 28), is a Denmark international right-back with Benfica, where he wears the No 6 shirt. His career was built in Denmark before he moved into a higher-profile setting, with his most productive league season coming at Sønderjyske in 2020-21, when he scored four goals in 12 appearances.
At Benfica, Bah has settled into the sort of role that asks for reliability more than noise. In 2026-27, he has made nine appearances across all competitions, including four in Liga Portugal and five in Europa League qualifiers. His form this season has been solid and consistent, which is usually the point with full-backs who do their job properly.
He has also remained involved with Denmark, making two appearances in European World Cup qualifying this season. Bah’s career to this point is that of an established professional right-back: developed in Denmark, tested at Benfica, and still part of the international picture.
