Early career
Ademola joined Cray Wanderers at a young age[vague] and eventually left in 2004. After scoring 19 goals for Croydon Athletic in the Isthmian League Division One South in the 2007–08 season, Ademola was spotted by scouts from teams in the Football League.
Professional career
Ademola consequently, went on trial with Charlton Athletic and Brentford. He signed his first professional deal with the latter in May 2008. His transfer fee was reportedly £2,500, paid by the Brentford fanzine "Thorne in the Side".[2]
The striker was loaned to Conference South side Welling United in November 2008, but was recalled by Brentford without making an appearance. He returned to Park View Road in December 2008,[3] and made four appearances in the league, scoring once. The loan spell was extended for a further month in early January 2009,[4] but just three days later, the decision was reversed,[5] and Ademola returned to Griffin Park.
Ademola joined Woking on loan the following season. On 29 January 2010, he made his loan move permanent by signing a contract with Woking until the end of the season.
Football Icon 2
Whilst at Croydon, Ademola was a finalist in the Sky TV reality show, Football Icon 2 in which young players competed for a contract at Chelsea.[citation needed]
