SuperSport United defender Ime Okon has been invited for trials with Ukrainian giants Dynamo Kyiv, with the option of an immediate transfer as reported by SABC Sports.
The 20-year-old reportedly departed South Africa over the weekend to link up with the club, which currently leads the Ukraine Premier League.
Dynamo Kyiv, while dominating domestically, are currently struggling in the UEFA Europa League.
INTEREST IN ENGLAND, BELGIUM & DENMARK
This opportunity presents a significant step in Okon's career, following previous reported interest from clubs in England, Belgium, and Denmark, which did not materialize.
Negotiations for a potential transfer of SuperSport United defender Ime Okon to Dynamo Kyiv will depend on his performance during his current trial with the Ukrainian club.
Okon, promoted to the senior team by coach Gavin Hunt at the start of the 2023/24 season, enjoyed an impressive debut campaign, making 33 appearances.
His consistent performances earned him a call-up to the South African national team, although he is yet to earn his first cap.
While eligible to represent Nigeria at the international level due to his family background, his international future remains undecided.
SuperSport United, anticipating a potential departure, have not included Okon in their recent matchday squads, suggesting they are preparing for life without the talented defender.
