Tuesday, July 15, 2025 - Super Falcons forward Omorinsola Babajide has completed her move to Italian Serie A Women’s club AS Roma.
The club officially confirmed the signing on its website,
announcing that Babajide has agreed to a two-year deal.
The 26-year-old joined the Giallorosse on a free transfer.
Her previous contract with Spanish Liga F outfit UD Tenerife expired in May,
making her a free agent.
Babajide shared her excitement about the move on her X
(formerly Twitter) account, stating: “Happy to finally announce that I’ve
signed for @ASRomaFemminile. I’m so excited to see what we can achieve
together. Back in red and ready for this incredible new chapter. Grateful to
God for guiding me through every step of this journey. My heart is full,
especially having my mum beside me along the way. Thank you @beplayerbyyoufirst
for making this move possible.. Can’t wait to get started & see you all.”
A versatile attacker, Babajide now becomes the second
Nigerian player at Roma, joining fellow Super Falcons teammate Shukurat
Oladipo.
She is expected to link up with her new teammates after the
conclusion of the ongoing 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) in
Morocco, where she is representing Nigeria.
