Junker has won the Danish Superliga and the Danish Cup with Brond FC. A prolific scorer, he has scored 68 goals at the top level of Dutch football - a league that has boasted the likes of Robin Van Persie and Luis Suarez.

During the 2005-06 season, Skoubo scored five goals in La Liga, three goals in the UEFA Cup, as well as a goal in Champions League Qualifying.
