Minteh told the Feyenoord website, “I am looking forward to playing for the reigning champions. It is an honor to wear the Feyenoord shirt. I am grateful for this opportunity and will do everything I can to improve as a footballer. I am sure that Feyenoord will help me achieve my goals – just as I am convinced that I can in turn help Feyenoord in its sporting ambitions.”
Minteh made 17 appearances for Odense BK, scoring four times and adding six assists.
