Morten Lauridsen Hyldgaard (born 26 January 1978) is a Danish former football goalkeeper who played for a number of clubs in English football. He played four games for the Denmark national under-21 football team.
He started his career with Ikast FS. He played for a while in England, signing with Coventry City in 1999, but he found first team chances rare and spent time on loan with Scunthorpe United and later Grimsby Town. He then had a spell in Scotland with Hibernian before returning to England with Luton Town.
He decided to end his career in 2004, but made a comeback with Danish club Esbjerg fB under manager Ove Pedersen. In 2006, he joined Pedersen at AGF, where he ended his career in 2009.
