Peter Planch Madsen (born 26 April 1978 in Roskilde) is a retired Danish professional footballer who played as a striker. He played 13 games and scored three goals for the Danish national team, and Madsen was part of the Danish squad at the 2002 FIFA World Cup and 2004 European Championship tournaments.
Madsen started playing as a junior for Roskilde B 06, before he moved on to the youth team of Brøndby IF. Considered a good talent, he played 35 matches and scored nine goals for various Danish national youth teams from 1993 to 1999. He made his senior debut for Brøndby in April 1997, and went on to win three Danish Superliga championships and the 1998 Danish Cup in his six years with the club. He finished the 2001–02 season as joint league top scorer with Kaspar Dalgas, and Madsen made his debut for the Danish senior national team in October 2001. He was included for the Danish team to compete at the 2002 FIFA World Cup, but did not play any games at the tournament.
Madsen was long linked with a move abroad, and he was eventually loaned out to German team VfL Wolfsburg in January 2003, playing in the top-flight Bundesliga championship. A part of the loan contract was a June 2003 transfer deal worth 15 million DKK, but as Wolfsburg eventually rejected the transfer, Madsen ended up playing for German league rivals VfL Bochum in the summer 2003. In his first season with Bochum, Madsen scored 13 league goals, and he was chosen to represent the Danish national team at the 2004 European Championship, where he took part in a single match at his second international tournament. Following Euro 2004, Madsen scored his first national team goals, when he scored three goals in a 5–1 win against Poland in August 2004.
