Forward Akinkunmi Amoo has been spotted keeping fit ahead of reviving his career.

The 22-year-old was seen training hard in Ibadan as he aims to get a club before the end of the summer transfer window.

Amoo terminated his contract in March 2024 at Omonia Nicosia after making only six appearances for the club.

Amoo was born in Ibadan, Nigeria and started playing football at Brightville Football Academy before moving to Lagos to sign for Sidos.

He was a part of the Nigeria U-17 team that played the 2019 U-17 African Cup of Nations, finishing fourth, before they headed out to the 2019 FIFA U-17 World Cup hosted in Brazil, where they were knocked out in the round of sixteen.

His stellar performances saw him move to Swedish side, Hammarby IF in 2020 where he scored thirteen goals in forty-eight games. In January 2022, he joined fifteen-time Denmark Champions, F.C. Copenhagen, in a deal worth around €4.4 million.

A knee injury knocked him out of the Byens Hold team for ten months, before news of a sexual assault surfaced, and the former Golden Eaglet was found guilty and sentenced to a one-year jail term.
