St Louis CITY SC loaned Nökkvi Thórisson to Eredivisie club Sparta Rotterdam through the end of June with a purchase option at the end of the loan. The loan move opens up an international spot on the roster.

“Having challenging himself and gaining valuable experience here in St. Louis, this loan move presents Nökkvi with a fantastic opportunity to continue his development in a competitive European league,” said Sporting Director Lutz Pfannenstiel. “Sparta Rotterdam has a rich history and a strong ambition which makes it an ideal environment for Nökkvi to continue improving as a player.”

Thórisson joined CITY SC in the summer of 2023 from Belgian club Beerschot V.A. and has since recorded six goal contributions (five goals and one assist) in 44 appearances across all competitions. Thórisson scored his first goal for CITY SC, a game-winner, in a 2-1 win over FC Dallas on August 30, 2023.
