He had a hard time forcing his way into the Feyenoord line-up.

When his contract with Feyenoord expired in July 2005, he returned to Denmark to play for AaB in the Danish Superliga. In his first time with AaB, Curth played both as an attacking midfielder and forward, before settling as the striking partner of Sweden international forward Rade Prica in the 2006–07 Superliga season.
