Adiele Eriugo

Adiele Peter Eriugo (born 12 August 2006) is a Nigerian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Enyimba.

Club career Eriugo progressed through the academy of Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) side Enyimba, where impressive performances for the club's 'B' team earned him his professional debut in a 1–1 draw with Bendel Insurance in March 2023. He made two further cameo appearances before making his first start for the club in an eventual 2–1 win against Plateau United, with manager Finidi George stating after the game that Eriugo "did so well", and that he "was impressed with his performance".

In the first match of the Super Six playoffs, between the top six teams in the NPFL, Eriugo scored his first goal for Enyimba in a 2–2 draw with Remo Stars. Following the conclusion of the 2022–23 season, which ended with Enyimba winning their ninth league title, Eriugo was offered his first professional contract with the club. He agreed to a two-year deal in August 2023.

In a 2–0 loss to Gombe United on 8 October 2023, Eriugo suffered an injury which initially ruled him out for two weeks. Despite this, he was included in the squad for Enyimba's CAF Champions League tie against Moroccan side WAC later in the same month.
