He made his first team debut on 9 July 2015 against Andorran club UE Sant Julià in the UEFA Europa League qualifiers; Randers won 3–0.[3] He came on the pitch in the 76th minute, where he replaced Johnny Thomsen. Later in the same season, Bager also made his debut in the Danish Superliga against FC Nordsjælland on 28 November 2015.[4]

He was officially promoted to the first team in October 2015.[5] Bager's contract was extended in September 2016 until 2020.[6]

In his second season Bager played more, and he scored his first goal for the club on 25 October 2020 in a 6–0 win over Club NXT.[10][11] As he finished the season with 22 appearances, in which he scored 2 goals – both against Club NXT – Union Saint-Gilloise managed to win promotion to the Belgian First Division A as champions.[12]
