Abiodun Agunbiade (born 2 January 1983) is a Nigerian former football player. He was a pacey and highly skilful dribbling midfielder that usually played on the right wing. During the final years of his career he played as a striker.

Between summer of 2006 and February 2007, Abiodun and teammate Wayne Srhoj didn't play a single official game, as they claimed their contract with FC Naţional had run out at the end of the 2005–2006 season. After seven months of controversial court hearings and delays, the final decision favoured the players who then signed with the Timișoara based team.

He played one match for Nigeria in a 2005 friendly which ended with a 3–0 loss against Romania.
