Paris Saint-Germain have strengthened their forward line with the signing of Nigerian international Rasheedat Ajibade.
Announcing the signing in its blog post on Tuesday, PSG said Ajibade’s contract will run until 30 June 2027.
The Club said, “Paris Saint-Germain is delighted to announce the arrival of Nigerian striker Rasheedat Busayo Ajibade, who has joined the club on a deal that runs until 30th June 2027.”
The 25-year-old, born on 8 December 1999 in the Mushin district of Lagos, arrives from Atlético de Madrid, where she has played since 2021 after a two-year spell in Norway with Avaldsnes IL.
In the 2024–25 season, Ajibade made 25 appearances, scoring eight goals and supplying three assists.
She was crowned as Nigeria’s NFF Young Player of the Year in 2018 after emerging from FC Robo Queens.
As captain of Nigeria, Ajibade has twice led the Super Falcons to continental glory at the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations, having done so in 2018 and in 2024.
The forward also featured as a regular starter for her side at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup and at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, and, with over 30 caps under her belt already, now represents a central figure in Nigerian football.
Commenting on the deal, Ajibade said, “I’m deeply honoured to be joining Paris Saint-Germain, a top-drawer club in Europe.
“This is a major step for me, and I’m committed to giving my all to help PSG win titles and to inspire young footballers, be they in Nigeria or elsewhere.”
