Friday Etim, the 23-year-old Nigerian forward, has officially signed with Danish top-flight club FC Midtjylland following an impressive season in Portugal’s second division with Madra. Scoring 8 goals and assisting 5 times in 31 appearances, Etim attracted European scouts’ attention and has now taken a significant leap forward in his career.
This transfer marks a new chapter for Etim, who has committed to a four-year contract with the ambitious Danish club aiming to strengthen its attack and secure a strong position in the Superliga. FC Midtjylland, known for its solid youth development and competitive squad, promises a promising environment for the Nigerian talent.
Friday Etim is noted for his pace, finishing skills, and team play — attributes that stood out prominently during the Liga Portugal 2 campaign. Adapting to Danish football will be a fresh challenge as he joins a squad competing in European tournaments such as the Europa League.
For FC Midtjylland, signing Etim highlights their strategy of investing in high-potential emerging players. He could quickly become a key offensive figure for the Danish side, with both African and European football communities watching closely his development.
