Stars Builders Academy graduate Ayodele Adeloye, who clinched the Golden Boot at the Evolution Cup, has signed for Albanian side FK Vora. The move marks his first major step into European football after impressing in domestic youth competitions.
Adeloye joined Stars Builders Academy in 2021 and was instrumental in helping the Ogun State club earn promotion to NLO1 in 2022. His pace, finishing, and consistency earned him the Evolution Cup top scorer award and now a contract with FK Vora, to Albania’s top tier.

Following the move, Adeloye expressed gratitude to his Nigerian academy and outlined his ambition: "I sealed a contract with the Albanian club, and I am grateful to the management of Stars Builders Academy for offering me the platform... I’m ready to give my best in my new club and win trophies at the end of the day..."

We view Ayodele Adeloye’s transfer to FK Vora as a pivotal moment in his development. Moving from youth football in Nigeria to competitive European action tests both skill and character and he appears ready.

We believe FK Vora’s recent promotion to Albania’s Kategoria Superiore offers Adeloye a sharp learning curve. With a reputation for nurturing young players, Vora provides a stage where his goal-scoring flair can turn heads across the continent.
We also commend Stars Builders Academy: their role in producing a player capable of earning a European contract speaks volumes about grassroots investment. Partnerships like these—between academy and opportunity—are essential for Nigerian football’s export pipeline.
We anticipate that if Adeloye adapts quickly, he could become a standout performer in Vora’s attack. His success would not only benefit his career but also attract scouts to Nigeria’s youth circuits—proving again how ambition, performance and smart pathways align for progress.
