Denis Odoi

Denis Odoi played for Fulham as a defender from 2016 until 2022. A versatile and agile player, he could fill in anywhere across the back line and was signed in July 2016 by Slaviša Jokanović. He represented Belgium on one occasion, earning his cap in May 2012 in a friendly against Montenegro.

Fulham (2016-2022)
Denis officially joined Fulham on 14 July 2016 from Lokeren for around £900,000. He made his debut in the league opener of 2016-17 in an impressive 1-0 win over favourites Newcastle United. He enjoyed success in his first season, reaching the Play-off Semi-finals in the Championship and spent much of his time playing at right back.

In the 2018-19 season, Denis converted to a centre back midway through the season and made the place his, keeping out loanee Tomáš Kalas, and helped the Whites on their way to Wembley for the Play-off Final, after a match winning header against Derby County in the Second leg of the Semi-final. A sending off in the Final against Aston Villa after a clumsy kick on Jack Grealish saw a nervy end to the match but ultimately got over the line.

Despite rumours of an exit from Craven Cottage, Denis stayed on and played a large number of matches in the Premier League, though Fulham's defence performed poorly and immediately returned to the Championship for 2019-20. Here, he helped them achieve promotion once more but again was found to be out of his depth in the Premier League in 2020-21 and only managed three League appearances all season.

Kenny Tete began the 2021-22 season as first choice right back as life in the Championship resumed once more, however, after an injury this gave Denis the starting spot and he kept his place in the side even once Kenny had recovered due to a good run of form.

After Fulham
Denis signed a permanent deal with Club Brugge very late on the January deadline day of 2022, ending his near-six year stay at Craven Cottage, for a fee in the region of £585,000.

Despite representing Belgium in an international friendly in 2012, he accepted a call up for Ghana and made his debut for them in March 2022.
