Sodje was signed by Championship Team Barnsley on the 15th of June 2009. The club allowed him to transfer for free as he was currently playing for York on an uncontracted basis. The reason for his contract status was a result of his absence of a valid work permit, which was connected to a pending disagreement with the immigration authorities regarding his rights to live at home in the UK. York paid PS5,000 in legal fees to help fight his case , which also earned the attention by the Archbishop York John Sentamu and MP Hugh Bayley. After gaining the right to remain in the country, he decided to relocate to Barnsley instead of signing the deal provided by York.

Sodje was signed by the fellow Conference Premier club York City on the 18th of June, 2007 on an unpaid transfer. He was the top goalscorer in York City’s top three teams with 17 goals during the season 2007/08. Sodje took home the inaugural Conference Premier Goal of the Month award in September of 2008 by scoring at Torquay United, which won by a margin of 30% votes. He made his debut as an 63rd minute substitute for the FA Trophy Final at Wembley Stadium on May 9th 2009, in which York was defeated 2-0 by Stevenage Borough. He was mostly on the bench after his performance declined during the 2008-09 season in which he made 7 goals and 46 appearances.
