Jonathan Okita

Okita made his Belgian First Division A debut for Standard Liège on 17 April 2016 in a game against Royal Excel Mouscron.

NEC

On 24 August 2018, Okita signed a four-year contract with Eerste Divisie club NEC Nijmegen. Three days later, he made his debut for the club in the 2–1 away win over Jong FC Utrecht. On 8 September, he scored his first goal for the club in the 3–2 away win against Roda JC Kerkrade. In his first season, he impressed with NEC, scoring 15 goals and providing 13 assists in 41 appearances. The following season, Okita struggled with his form, but still managed to score six goals and provide seven assists in 28 games. He was set to leave the club in the summer of 2020, but partly due to the COVID-19 pandemic he stayed at the Nijmegen-based club. As new head coach Rogier Meijer took over the reins, Okita was again utilised in his attacking formation. On 23 May 2021, Okita won promotion to the Eredivisie with NEC by beating NAC Breda 2–1 in the final of the play-offs. Okita, who had once again gone through a mediocre season with four goals and four assists in 33 games, lived up in the play-offs. With four goals in three play-off games, including the matchwinner against NAC, he was a key player in the club's promotion.

Zürich

On 23 June 2022, Okita signed a three-year contract with Zürich in Switzerland.
