A Danish club Midtjylland then picked him in their squad wherein the player represented them in 18 matches and scored only once.
In the 22 appearances for Midtylland, Dovbyk has scored only once. He then featured in the Sønderjyske side to play as a loan player in the 2019-20 season. He made 21 appearances for this side and scored twice. Though, the years from 2020 brought glory to his career.
