Fasilat Adeyemo Joins FC ROBO International Coaching Crew — A New Chapter Begins

Former international player Fasilat Adeyemo is set to bring fresh energy and insight to the technical bench of FC ROBO International ahead of the 2025/26 Nigeria Women Football League (NWFL) season. The ex-Falconets star has officially joined the club’s coaching crew, and excitement is building around what her experience will add to the squad.

Adeyemo is no stranger to the big stage. She was a key figure in Nigeria’s squad at the 2012 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup in Japan*, proudly representing the *Falconets*. Her club career featured standout spells with *Confluence Queens FC* and *FC ROBO International*, where she built a reputation as a disciplined, intelligent, and reliable player.

In a recent reflection, Adeyemo publicly thanked former coach *Peter Dedevbo* for giving her the platform to shine during the Falconets’ clash with South Africa’s U-20 side — a moment that helped define her international journey.

*Bringing Experience and Energy to the Bench*

As the new season approaches, the return of *Fasilat Adeyemo* — this time on the touchline — symbolizes both a homecoming and a new beginning.

Now a certified coach, Adeyemo’s shift from playing to coaching marks a bold and inspiring step — one that mirrors the club’s vision for continuous growth. Her appointment is expected to make a meaningful impact across multiple fronts:

- *Tactical Development* – Adeyemo brings deep understanding from both ends of the game and is expected to help sharpen team strategy.


- *Youth Mentorship* – With her background, she’s perfectly placed to guide FC ROBO’s young talents as they transition into full professionals.


- *Mental & Emotional Leadership* – Having faced the challenges of elite-level football herself, she knows what it takes to succeed.

Her journey is part of a growing trend in women’s football, where former players return to the technical space to shape the next generation — and *FC ROBO International* continues to be at the forefront of that movement.

*A Promising Season Ahead*

Club sources believe Adeyemo’s inclusion will be pivotal as FC ROBO prepares for what is expected to be one of the most competitive NWFL campaigns yet. The club’s commitment to blending youth development with technical excellence makes it a strong contender for top honours.

Fasilat Adeyemo’s journey is one of talent, resilience, and growth. Her return to *FC ROBO International* in this new capacity highlights the club’s ongoing commitment to excellence, development, and leadership in Nigerian women’s football.

*Welcome back, Coach Fasilat — the journey continues. And this chapter promises to be even more impactful.*
