SuperSport United teenager Ime Okon has attracted interest from Danish Superliga side FC Midtjylland where he’s been invited to undergo an assessment.
It’s been a whirlwind two years for the towering defender who was named in the preliminary Africa Cup of Nations squad for South Africa.
Having joined the club from Randburg FC, he went on to star in the DStv Diski Challenge team before his first-team promotion under Gavin Hunt.
Okon has been an ever-present figure and despite only being 19, one of the standout talents in the league that’s unsurprisingly caught the attention of European suitors.
iDiski Times understands the Danish top-flight league leaders were first to act and bring him over for a trial period and should he impress, a move to Europe is likely.
While it’s still early days, the data provided from the 2023/24 season with Matsatsansa has left the club feeling he’s a real prospect for the future.
