He hails from Hjørring. Baggesen joined Silkeborg IF as a youth player. In January 2023, Silkeborg's director of sports stated that a move up to the first team was out of the question, with players like Lukas Engel, Lukas Klitten, Gustav Dahl and possibly Oscar Fuglsang occupying the spots. Baggesen was therefore allowed to transfer to the Swedish Allsvenskan club IFK Norrköping[2][3]
Baggesen quickly became a starter at Norrköping and thus made his breakthrough. In June 2023, Baggesen was ranked as number 77 on the Golden Boy award's top 100 talent list.[4][5]
