Afeez Aremu

Aremu has made four Premiership appearances for Aberdeen in 2026–27, starting each match, and has four League Cup appearances; he has zero goals and two yellow cards – the pattern of starts and cup involvement suggests he is being deployed as a starting central defensive midfielder in the early rounds of the campaign.

Aremu's career progressed through five senior clubs. He moved from International Allies to Start in January 2018, joined St. Pauli in August 2020, transferred to Kaiserslautern in August 2023 and then signed for Aberdeen in January 2026; the sequence records steady multi-year spells at each stop and a clear sequence of club-to-club moves over his mid-20s.

Aremu joined Aberdeen from Kaiserslautern for a fee of €140,000 in January 2026; his earlier moves to St. Pauli in August 2020, to Kaiserslautern in August 2023 and from International Allies to Start in January 2018 were undisclosed – the January 2026 fee is the only recorded transfer sum in his recent record.
