Career

edit

Otoa joined AaB in the summer 2021, after turning down a contract offer at FC Roskilde, where he played U19 before joining AaB. Before that, he had spent three years in F.C. Copenhagen's academy.[1] But his adventure in AaB got off to a rough start, as the tall defender only managed to play one game for AaB's U19 team before a series of leg strain injuries set in. In the spring of 2022, he returned to action for the U19 team, and also played a few reserve team matches.

After several sales in the AaB-squad, Otoa was called up for his first Danish Superliga match on 11 September 2022 against Lyngby Boldklub.[2] 29 minutes into the match, Lars Kramer was injured and Otoa came on for his professional debut.[3][4] On 12 July 2023, Otoa signed a new long-term deal with AaB until June 2027.[5]
