Super Falcons forward, Rasheedat Ajibade has joined Spanish Primera Iberdrola side Atlético Madrid Feminino on a two-year deal, Sports247 reports.
The 21-year-old signs on a free transfer after her contract with Avaldsnes IL ran out in December 2020.
“It is a great privilege and an opportunity to be here,” a delighted Ajibade told the club’s website on her first interview.
“I am excited to be a part of this team and I hope that together we achieve success. It is a great step in my career and a great challenge for me and I am ready to give it my all.
“I am a versatile, energetic and hard-working player. I tell the Atléticos that I’m going to do my best so that they and the team can feel proud.”
Ajibade spent the last two years on the books of Avaldsnes IL in the Norwegian Toppserien where she made steady progress.
Her fine performances last season saw her included in the Norwegian Women’s top-flight team of the year for 2020.
Great information. Lucky me I ran across your blog by chance (stumbleupon).
I’ve book-marked it for later!
