Nigeria winger Uchechi Okoye has joined Czech club Rajecko, completing his move on 5 September 2026 after a period without a club. The 20-year-old plays as a right winger and becomes part of Rajecko’s squad for the 2026-27 season.
Okoye most recently represented Jihlava before leaving the club at the start of 2026. He had joined Jihlava’s senior setup from the club’s under-19 team in July 2025, following a move from Right2Win SA to Jihlava U19 in September 2024.
During the 2025-26 campaign, Okoye also spent time on loan at Vrchovina NMnM. The temporary move began in August 2025 and ended in December, when he returned to Jihlava. He subsequently became unattached before switching to Rajecko.
The Nigerian forward recorded five goals in 14 MSFL appearances and also scored five times in 16 matches in the 1. liga U19. He played one match in the MOL Cup, completing 90 minutes, while his record also includes an entry in the ChNL.
Okoye’s arrival gives Rajecko a player with experience across senior and under-19 football. His statistical record shows a return of 10 goals across his appearances in the MSFL and 1. liga U19, with the majority of those goals coming during the 2025-26 season.
He joins Rajecko at the age of 20, having established right wing as his main position. The move also marks the latest stage of a career that has included youth football at Jihlava, a senior spell with the club and a loan period at Vrchovina NMnM.
Rajecko have now completed the signing of Okoye, who became their player on 5 September 2026.
