O'Brien completes move from Nordsjaelland to Odense

Promising American midfielder Conor O'Brien has signed with Odense BK.

The 24-year old has departed Nordsjaelland to join their Danish SuperLiga rivals and is looking forward to getting more regular game time.

"I was looking for a little bit more of a chance to prove myself than I felt I was going to get at Nordsjælland," O'Brien told MLSsoccer.com by phone from Denmark.

"The option came up for me and I took the chance."

O'Brien only joined Nordsjaelland from SonderjyskE in January and admitted he was surprised to struggle for regular minutes at Farum Park.

"I think I played well in Nordsjælland and proved to a lot of people that I could attain that level at a bigger club," he added.

"Maybe I didn't have some of the goals and assists I had at SønderjyskE, but if you look at team performances, without me they didn't win one game in my time there. It made a difference whether I was on the field or off the field, and I think some people around the league noticed that."
