Early life
Born in Lagos, Nigeria, Adeleke moved to Italy in 2007 as a teenager.[2]
Career
On 22 August 2015, Adeleke joined Australian club Western Sydney Wanderers.[3] On 7 November 2015, he made his Wanderers debut.[4] He travelled with the club to the 2015 FIFA Club World Cup, and missed his kick in the penalty shoot-out loss to ES Sétif which saw the Wanders finish sixth.[5] On 13 February 2016, it was announced that Adeleke had left Western Sydney Wanderers.[6]
In May 2016 Adeleke signed with Arcella, based in Padua, Italy, playing in Prima Categoria.[7] In 2016, however, Adeleke's Italian residency status came under threat. Needing to be a "professional athlete", as the league in which he was playing (Promozione) was an amateur league, Adeleke's permit was not renewed by the Italian National Olympic Committee. Adeleke appealed this on the grounds that he was receiving payment to play.[2]
