In January 2006, Odita was sent on a six-month loan to Javor Ivanjica.[2] In the 2006–07 season, Odita scored 10 league goals in 23 matches, often partnering Stevan Jovetić in the attack. In June 2007, Odita moved to the United Arab Emirates and signed a two-year contract with Al Ain.[3]

Westerlo

Odita played for Westerlo in the second half of the 2007–08 season, on loan from Al Ain. In January 2009, he once again moved to Belgium and signed a permanent contract with Westerlo. In the summer of 2010, Odita made a return to Serbia by signing with his former club Javor Ivanjica for the 2010–11 season.[4]
