āI feel amazing, itās the best birthday that I could have wished for. I am very excited to play in the Championship because itās competitive and can help me find my form and grow into the player I want to be. Looking at the season the team had previously, they came so close to promotion. So I felt like I wanted to come here and help make that dream come true. I also believe that working under Karen will allow me to progress as a player,ā Ademuluyi said on Charltonās official website.
Ademiluyi was born in Gravesend, Kent, England, but is of Nigerian descent, and is eligible to represent the Super Falcons of Nigeria or the Lionesses of England. Her preferred National team is unknown at the moment, but sheās yet to represent either nation at any level.
