Mortensen is a product of Lyngby Boldklub's youth sector and fought his way up through the youth ranks. On 20 May 2021, Mortensen became the youngest debutant in the history of Lyngby - at the age of 17 years, 2 months and 1 day - when he came of the bench in a Danish Superliga game against OB on 20 May 2021.[1][2] This was his only first team appearance in that season. In the upcoming 2021–22 season, where Lyngby played in the Danish 1st Division, Mortensen only made two appearances: both in the Danish Cup.
In August 2022, Mortensen signed a new contract until June 2025.[3] Mortensen made a total of four appearances for Lyngby in the 2022–23 season.
