Afeez Aremu is a Nigerian central defensive midfielder, born on 3 October 1999 (age 26), currently with Aberdeen. He wears number 32 and is valued at around £510,000 by Transfermarkt.
His most productive league campaign came with Start in 2018, when he scored three times in 26 appearances. That remains the clearest marker in the available record of a midfielder whose work is generally based more on position and containment than decoration.
At Aberdeen in 2026-27, Aremu has made one league appearance and three in the League Cup, giving him four appearances across all competitions for the club. His Aberdeen record is still brief, but he is part of their midfield options rather than a headline act.
Aremu’s career so far has moved from a productive spell at Start to a place in Aberdeen’s squad. At 26, he is an established professional with a straightforward defensive-midfield profile.
