[edit]In the summer 2016, Simonsen was loaned out to Danish 1st Division club HB Køge until the winter break.[6] On 21 December 2016, HB Køge announced that they didn't want to keep the forward, because they were looking for a goal machine.[7] He played 19 league matches scoring 2 goals, before returning to SønderjyskE.

His birth parents are from Haiti, but he was adopted at a young age by a Danish family.[12] A youth international for Denmark, he debuted for the Haiti national team in a 10–0 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification win over Turks and Caicos Islands on 5 June 2021.[13]
