Source-derived summary

Felix Ademola Aladesanmi (born 9 September 1974) is a Nigerian former professional football who played as a midfielder.

Career

Ademola played for Stationery Stores F.C., France-based club Lens, Belgian RFC Liège, Colombian team Deportes Tolima, then Skeid Fotball and FK Haugesund and Swedish side Husqvarna FF. He returned to Norway and played for Hamarkameratene, Hønefoss BK, Vard Haugesund and Manglerud Star in Norway. In the second half of 2009 he was loaned out to Årvoll IL.

When Ademola first came to Norway, he signed for FK Haugesund. However, FK Haugesund signed another Nigerian forward around the same time, Bala Garba. According to the rules, only one non-EEC national could be fielded during any time. After a period where Haugesund decided which Nigerian player to use, the club landed on Bala Garba and decided to offload Ademola. Fredrikstad FK inquired about his availability, and Ademola was then on a short trial with Lillestrøm SK, but was ultimately signed by Skeid on loan.

In Hamarkameratene he was known as a technical player with flair.

Personal life

Ademola's son, Kevin Aladesanmi, is a professional footballer.

According to reports in Norwegian media, Ademola's father and grandfathers were village rulers in Ondo State.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Felix Ademola”, the useful work is to connect “nigerian footballer” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

Biographical claims are most persuasive when dates, appointments and relationships can be traced to records created close to the events described. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 13, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q3742304. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1974 and 2009.

Critical limits

Public reputation and documentary evidence do not always develop together; absence from a summary is not evidence of historical absence. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
