Super Falcons Star Shukurat Oladipo Commits Future to AS Roma with New Three-Year Deal
Super Falcons defender Shukurat Oladipo has reaffirmed her commitment to Italian champions AS Roma after signing a new contract that will keep her at the club until June 2029.
The agreement is a major vote of confidence in the 21-year-old, who has quickly become one of the standout performers in the Italian women's top flight since joining the club in 2025.
Her impressive displays at the heart of Roma's defence have earned widespread praise, making her one of the most promising Nigerian footballers playing in Europe.
Oladipo arrived at AS Roma from Nigeria Women Football League side FC Robo Queens and wasted little time adapting to life in Italy.
Since making the move, she has established herself as a key member of the squad, contributing consistently with composed defensive performances and strong leadership at the back.
During the 2025/26 season, the Nigerian international played a vital role as Roma secured both the Serie A title and the Coppa Italia trophy.
Her outstanding performances also saw her receive recognition as the Italian Women's League Best Defender, further highlighting her rapid development and growing reputation.
The contract extension reflects the club's belief in her ability and long-term importance to the team as they continue to compete for domestic honours and success in European competitions.
Oladipo has also become a regular figure in the Super Falcons squad and is expected to play a key role for Nigeria at the 2026 Women's Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.
With her future now secured at AS Roma, the talented defender will be looking to build on her impressive achievements and continue establishing herself among Africa's finest defenders.
