The academy has developed a number of talents from Midtjylland's linked clubs in Nigeria, including Izunna Uzochukwu, Jude Nworuh, Baba Collins and Adigun Salami.
Isaac Oliseh (born 3 August 1993) is a Nigerian footballer who plays for Midtjylland.
Lene Stokholm Demsitz (Humlebæk) (Jørgensen) (born March 8, 1959 in Rønde, Midtjylland) is a retired female long jumper from Denmark.
After teammate Mikkel Beckmann was injured against FC Midtjylland, he featured in the starting lineup the following three matches, as a right winger; he scored his only league goal in a 2–0 away success, also against Midtjylland.
He was one of the first players to graduate from FCM's football academy, the first of its kind in Denmark, coming through the system alongside Midtjylland teammates Jesper Weinkouff, Christian Sivebæk and former teammate, Simon Kjær.
