He afterwards started more regularly during the fall of 2007, but was benched again in spring. He made 23 league appearances during the 2007–08 season, of which 13 were as a substitute.

The following season, Gjesing featured more regularly in the first team, making 22 league appearances in which he scored two goals. In May 2006, towards the end of the 2005–06 season, he signed three-year contract extension which AGF sporting director Brian Steen Nielsen called “justified […], he has a good potential and, not least, a tremendous will which can bring him far.”

Gjesing started his career in the youth academy of lower division side Vejlby IK before moving to the AGF youth department in 1997 at age 10. In 2001, he was part of the AGF under-15 team winning gold at the unofficial European Youth Club Championship in Vienna, qualifying for the World Cup. Throughout his youth years, Gjesing was known as a prolific striker, before being utilised as a defender and finally at the position of midfielder, which he played later as a professional first-team player.

In October 2004, Gjesing signed his first professional contract with AGF, a one-and-a-half-year deal. At this point he had already been part of the first team for some months and appeared in pre-season friendlies. Gjesing made his official debut as an 18-year-old only a month after signing the contract, coming on as an 88th-minute substitute in a 4–0 away defeat in the Danish Superliga to future champions Brøndby IF on 21 November. During his first season as a member of the first team, he made two total appearances.

On 20 September 2006, during extra time of the Danish Cup third round matchup away against FC Roskilde, Gjesing scored the decisive 2–1 goal in the 120th minute to send AGF into the round of 32. He received a red card in a Danish 1st Division (second highest division) loss to Lyngby Boldklub on 22 April 2007 after elbowing an opponent, an action for which he was fiercely criticised following the match by head coach Ove Pedersen and team captain Peter Graulund, calling it “immature” and “inexcusable”. Gjesing, however, excused his red card by saying that “to err is human” and that the situation was “a learning experience”.
