Nigerian striker Stanley Iheanacho has completed a return to Danish Superliga outfit FC Midtjylland from Portuguese second-division side CD Mafra, Prompt News Online reports .
The 21-year-old has signed a contract with FC Midtjylland that will keep him at the club until December 31, 2030.
Iheanacho spent the last two seasons with CD Mafra, where he scored 17 goals in 65 appearances across all competitions.
The talented forward previously featured for FC Midtjylland before his move to Portugal and will now look to continue his development back in Denmark.
” I see it as a good opportunity for me to move to FC Midtjylland. I really enjoyed my time here when I played in the academy. It was like my springboard and the start of my career” Iheanacho told the club’s official website.
” I managed to make my first-team debut, which I am incredibly happy about, but at the time the good decision for me was to move to Mafra. I got a lot of playing time, and had a really good season most recently. Now I feel that the next step for me is to move back to FC Midtjylland and hopefully get playing time here and continue my development.
“I already know many of the team, as several of those I played with in the U19 team and in Mafra are now playing in the first team. I look forward to being part of the club again, hopefully winning titles and playing in the Europa League.”
