Simon Karlsson Adjei (born 10 November 1993) is a Swedish professional footballer who plays for Assyriska IK as a striker.
Club career
York9
On 3 December 2018 Adjei signed a two-year contract with Canadian Premier League side York9, reuniting with his former manager at Aurora FC, Jim Brennan, and becoming the first foreign signing in league history.[1] He made his debut for York9 in their inaugural match against Forge FC on April 27, 2019.[2] He scored his first goal for the club in their following game on May 4, 2019 against Cavalry FC in a 2-1 defeat.[3] On 1 February 2020, Adjei agreed to the mutual termination of his contract.[4]
In 2020, he said that "It (Canadian soccer) is much tougher and you are left a little more on the field, you have to manage yourself a little more. You do not have the same support".[5]
