Oluwafeyiseitan Asagidigbi (born 28 January 1999), commonly known as Feyiseitan Asagidigbi, is a Nigerian professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Club Almagro.[3]
Asagidigbi spent a period of his youth career in his hometown with Ilesa West, a club that his father worked for.[1] In 2017, after interest from Rosario Central, Asagidigbi joined the ranks of Banfield from Karamone.[1] [4] [5] After a few years progressing through their academy, the attacking midfielder featured in the club's pre-season preparations in mid-2019 - featuring in a number of friendlies.[6] His competitive bow didn't occur though, as he later departed on loan in November 2020 to Primera B Metropolitana side JJ Urquiza.[3] [7] He made his senior debut on 19 December during a 2–1 defeat away to Villa San Carlos.[3]
In June 2022, Asagidigbi joined Primera Nacional side Club Almagro.[8]
After impressing for Ilesa West, Asagidigbi received call-ups from Nigeria's U13 side.[1] [6] He was, despite previously featuring for them, left out of the squad for a 2010 tournament in London, England.[1] The same coach, however, soon selected him for the U15s, as they went on to win the 2014 African Youth Games competition in Gaborone, Botswana; defeating Swaziland in the final.[1] [9] He also featured, in an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier, for the U17s.[5] In 2018, U20s manager Haruna Ilerika called Asagidigbi up for his preliminary squad ahead of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations in Niger - but he missed the final cut.[1] [10] [11]
Asagidigbi's father, Seun, was a professional footballer; notably playing in Saudi Arabia and in their homeland for the likes of Shooting Stars and Stationery Stores.[1] [12] His brother, Madewa, also played football in Nigeria.[1] As a youngster, Asagidigbi attended Total Child Nursery & Primary School and The Salvation Army Secondary School.[1]
