Christian Tue Jensen (born 9 March 2000) is a Danish professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for HB Køge.
Jensen is a product of the FC Midtjylland academy and played his first senior football on loan at FC Fredericia. He transferred to Finnish club KuPS in 2022, but following an abortive spell, he returned to Denmark with HB Køge in 2023. Capped by Denmark at youth level, Jensen has been described as "a forward capable of waspish delivery with his right foot".

He signed his first professional contract in January 2017 and signed a new five-year contract in June 2018.
