Finnish club AC Oulu have announced the acquisition of Anglo - Nigerian striker Tashan Adeyinka. The 21 - year - old has signed a one - year contract with the second - tier club.

Adeyinka impressed the coaching staff of AC Oulu by scoring three goals in two test games. Thus, he has been rewarded with a contract until the end of the season.

''Tashan really convinced us from the first day of practice. He is very strong and agile big man,'' AC Oulu coach Rauno Ojanen told the official website, acoulu.fi.

A product of the NIKE Academy, Adeyinka has also had spells with the youth teams of Crystal Palace and Southend United.

All things being equal, Adeyinka will make his official debut on April 29 against Haka in the first round of matches in Ykkönen.
