Nnamdi Oduamadi Chidiebere (born 17 October 1990), also known by his shirt name Odu, [1] is a Nigerian footballer who plays as a forward, currently under contract for Eccellenza club Colleferro.
Born in Lagos, Oduamadi started playing football at the local Pepsi Football Academy at the age of 7. [2] [3] He left his home country in 2008 to join Milan, although he was officially signed only in January 2009 due to bureaucratic issues. [3] Oduamadi spent two seasons in the club's youth system and was a member of the under-20 side who won the Coppa Italia Primavera in 2010, 25 years after the team's last success in the competition. [4]
At the beginning of the 2010–11 season, Milan announced to have sold half of the rights to Oduamadi to Genoa in co-ownership for €3.5 million, [5] as part of the deal that saw defender Sokratis Papastathopoulos move the other way. [6] The Nigerian, though, stayed at Milan on loan, [7] being included in the first team squad. He made his official debut for the club in a league game against Catania on 18 September 2010, coming off the bench in the last minutes. [8] However, that remained his only appearance of the season and he still played games for the under-20 team at times through the season as an over-age player, [9] being also included in the squad for the annual Viareggio Cup. [10]
At the beginning the 2011–12 season, Oduamadi's co-ownership deal between Milan and Genoa was resolved in favour of the former, [11] but he was sent on loan to Serie B club Torino. [12] He ended the season with 11 appearances and three goals.
For the 2012–13 season, Oduamadi joined Serie B side Varese on another loan deal. [13]
At the start of the 2013–14 campaign, Oduamadi moved to Serie B club Brescia, once again on loan. [14]
On 31 January 2014, Oduamadi rejoined Varese, making his second loan spell. [15]
On 8 August 2014, Oduamadi was signed by Serie B club Crotone. [16] On 21 January 2015 he was signed by U.S. Latina Calcio. [17] [18]
On 22 July 2015, Oduamadi moved on loan to TFF First League club Şanlıurfaspor for the season. [19] However, the deal was cut short before the end of the summer transfer window and he came to Milan. [20]
On 22 March 2016, Oduamadi moved to Finnish club HJK Helsinki, on a loan deal set to expire on 31 December. [21] On 26 May 2016, he scored the decisive goal in the Helsinki derby as HJK claimed a 2–1 victory over HIFK. [22]
In 2017–18 season, Oduamadi played for Milan Primavera team as an over-age player. [23] He also received call-up from the first team. [24]
On 8 October 2021, Oduamadi signed for Serie D club Crema. [25]
At international level, Oduamadi was first capped by Nigeria U-17, when he was at the Pepsi Football Academy. [26] He went on to be called up by Nigeria U-20 to take part in the 2009 FIFA U-20 World Cup, but eventually was cut from the final squad due to an hamstring injury. [27]
Oduamadi made his full international debut for Nigeria against Kenya, on 29 March 2011, featuring as a second-half substitute. [28] Two years later, he made his second appearance against Kenya in a 2014 World Cup qualifying match, where he scored the equalising goal in the 94th minute to level the score. [29]
Oduamadi was selected for Nigeria's squad at the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup, [30] in which he scored three goals against Tahiti in their opening match. [31]
