Kenny Adeshigbin (born 12 February 1991 in Atlanta, Georgia, United States) is an American soccer player who is last known to have played for Säffle FF in the Swedish Division 2. He has listed his speed, strength, and finishing as his strong points.[4]

Career

Trinidad and Tobago

One of new Point Fortin Civics new additions for the 2016-17 TT Pro League,[5] Adeshigbin was first introduced in the opening round where Civic were overcome 3-1, almost supplying an assist in the 54th minute[6] before being fouled in his second game on the 43rd minute which caused him to be stretched off.[7]

Sweden

Supplying two goals on his IK Arvika Fotboll debut in 2014 to help them overcome Vänersborgs IF 2-0,[8] Adeshigbin then joined Vänersborgs IF at the beginning of 2015, received well by this teammates and aiming to "add an extra dimension to the team"[9] as well as to aid them in promotion to the Division 1.[4] Despite not living up to expectations and finding the net four times by early August that year,[10] he was almost traded to Karlstad BK[11] but was deregistered by VFK during June 2016[12] for reportedly staying in Sweden illegally after the expiration of his visa,[13] causing their chairman Kerstin Landgren to apologize for the American's premature departure.[14] Next, the Atlanta local came to terms on a move to Säffle FF in spring 2017.[15]

Personal life

The forward's father, a former footballer in Nigeria, engendered his love for soccer and his sister, Taiwo Adeshigbin, practiced the sport during college as well as overseas.[1]
