Jereko Signs Permanent Deal with HB Køge

Kansas City Current midfielder, Mwanalima Adam Jereko has permanently departed the Current, signing a contract with sister club, HB Køge in the Danish A-Liga. Jereko had joined the Danish club earlier this year on loan along with teammate Flora Marta Lacho.

Jereko joined Kansas City in August of 2024 and made four appearances across all competitions in the remainder of the 2024 season, including in the final of the 2024 NWSL x Liga MX Femenil Summer Cup. A 2-0 win against Gotham FC in San Antonio, Texas. She made just one appearance for the club in 2025 before departing on loan. Since joining Køge on loan, Jereko has appeared eight times in league play for the club and another four times in cup competitions. She’s started nine of those twelve games. She’s also scored two goals for them in cup play.

Jereko has signed a two-year contract with the Chris and Angie Long owned Danish club.

The Long’s purchased HB Koge Women back in May of this year. They play in Denmark’s top flight league and are investing heavily in the club. In addition to sending Jereko and Lacho overseas, several KC Current II players joined for the season as well. The Longs also doubled their investment into the HB Koge Academy.

“We’re not stopping here,” Chris Long told ESPN. “When we think multi club, we feel like we’ve got a blueprint with the Kansas City Current. We feel like we can take that same blueprint, use it here — although I think there’s some definitely different aspects, community-wise — and then we have some other conversations ongoing to extend it further.”
