Career

O'Donkor set the record for the youngest ever Oxford United player at the age of 16 years and 55 days when he made his debut on 8 December 2020 in an EFL Trophy tie against Forest Green Rovers.[2][3] After the match was drawn 1–1, he scored Oxford United's opening penalty in the penalty shoot-out as they won 4–1 on penalties.[2]

On 5 March 2022, O'Donkor joined National League South side Oxford City on an initial one-month loan deal.[4] He made his debut that day, scoring the third in a 5–0 defeat of Tonbridge Angels.[5] He returned to his parent club and made his league debut for Oxford United as a second-half substitute in the last game of the 2021–22 season, a 1–1 draw with Doncaster Rovers, on 30 April 2022.[6] He signed his first professional contract with the club in August 2022.[7] His first senior start came in a 2nd-round EFL Cup defeat to Crystal Palace on 23 August 2022,[8] and his first League start in a 2–1 home victory over Burton Albion on 3 September 2022.[9] He scored his first senior goal for the club having come on as a half-time substitute in a League One fixture against Fleetwood Town on 1 November 2022; the game ended in a 1–1 draw.[10]

On 9 February 2024, O'Donkor joined Barnet on loan until the end of the season.[11]
