Clarke Oduor, a 22-year-old midfielder, has been making waves at Barnsley FC in the English League Two. On August 28, 2021, he played a crucial role in helping the team earn a 1-1 draw against Birmingham City.
According to reports, Oduor was not used by Valerien Ismael in the team's 27th match of the 2020-2021 season, but new coach Markus Schopp has given him more opportunities, and he has not disappointed.
In the team's five matches so far in the 2021-2022 season, Oduor has played a total of 380 minutes, including a full 90 minutes against Birmingham City.
He also played the full 90 minutes in the Carabao Cup match against Bolton Wanderers.
On August 28, 2021, Oduor made a crucial pass to Callum Styles, which led to an early goal in the sixth minute. He also caused problems for the Birmingham City defense, which was eventually equalized by Lukas Jutkiewicz in the 33rd minute.
Birmingham City is currently fifth in the table with eight points, while Barnsley is 14th with six points in the 24-team league led by Fulham with 13 points.
