Super Eagles midfielder part ways with Danish club

Ogenyi Onazi has terminated his contract with Danish Super Liga side SønderjyskE Fodbold by mutual agreement, Sports247 reports.

The Nigerian international penned a one year deal with an option for a further two years on joining SønderjyskE in October 2020.

However, things haven’t gone as both parties would have hoped and the midfielder’s contract has been dissolved.

The club’s sporting director Hans Jørgen spoke on the topic.

“There is not a finger to put on Onazi’s efforts in SonderjyskE. He has been a professional to the tips of his toes,” Haysen told the club website.

“He came with a backlog from an injury, but he has been in almost all training sessions with us, and also earned a starting place in the Sydbank Cup and a few innings in the 3F Super League.

“However, it did not turn out quite as he and we had hoped, and he himself has expressed that he might fit better into another league than the 3F Superliga, and he now has the opportunity to try it out.

“We thank him for his efforts in the light blue jersey and wish him all the best for the future.”

Onazi has been blighted by injuries in recent years. He leaves the Danish club with only three appearances to his name.
