19-Year-Old Midfielder Popoola Ridwan Joins UAE Powerhouse Al Wasl

19-Year-Old Midfielder Popoola Ridwan Joins UAE Powerhouse Al Wasl

Nigerian defensive midfielder Popoola Ridwan has completed a permanent move to Al Wasl in the UAE Pro League. The 19-year-old made his name at Seamoriow FC before a February 2025 switch to Hungary’s Kisvárda. His composure, work rate and ball-winning ability in senior football caught the eye of several clubs overseas. Al Wasl, eight-time UAE champions and former coaching home of Diego Maradona, expect Ridwan’s energy and defensive discipline to strengthen their midfield as they chase more silverware.

Not convinced his composure and work rate alone justify this big leap, especially without top-tier European experience under his belt.

Focusing on extra tactical drills and adapting quickly to UAE conditions should help him settle in and maintain his performance levels.
