Danish Superliga Champion Onyeka Returns To FC Midtjylland Squad After Suspension

Published: July 12, 2020

Former Nigeria U23 invitee Frank Onyeka is in line to make his 32nd appearance of the season in all competitions when FC Midtjylland tackle AGF at Ceres Park & Arena (Arhus) on Sunday evening, allnigeriasoccer.com reports.

The central midfielder has been named in the matchday eighteen by manager Brian Priske.

Onyeka was not involved in the Wolves title-winning match vs FC Copenhagen three days ago because he was serving a one-game suspension following his sending off against FC Nordsjaelland.

The 22-year-old was dismissed for a second bookable offense in the 95th minute of The Wolves 1-0 victory against Nordsjælland after an altercation with Mads Døhr Thychosen.

Today, Onyeka can help FC Midtjylland extend their record-breaking points tally for away matches in a single- season

FC Midtjylland have dropped only two points in 16 away games this term - winning 15 and drawing the other.

Meanwhile, central defender Raphael Onyedika, who recently penned a new multi-year contract with the Danish Superliga champions and has been promoted to the first team, has been left out of the traveling party to AGF.
