In what has been a very busy summer for Ikorodu City Football Club, the club has announced that it has completed its first summer signing as Rivio Ayemwenre joins the side.

Rivio was unveiled as a player of Ikorodu City on Tuesday, 13th August 2024 after successful agreement with the player and agent.

Rivio who plays as a central midfielder was part of the triumphant Sporting Lagos side who gained promotion to the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) in 2022/2023 from the Nigeria National League (NNL) and went on to score the sides’ first ever topflight goal in the NPFL on matchday one at home to Gombe United.
