Olayeni Fashina Abiodun (born 10 October 1990 in Lagos, Nigeria) is a Nigerian footballer who is last known to have played for Heartland FC of the Nigeria Professional Football League.
Donning Swazi team Malanti Chiefs' colors in 2008/09, Fashina left the club to CSSC of the Mauritian Premier League when he was still registered with them and without international clearance, leaving coach Dumsani Gimedze annoyed. [8] Gimedze stated that before going to Mauritius, Fashina sent him a letter, fabricating that he was trialling for a French club and stopping in Mauritius only to get a visa. [9] As a consequence, Gimedze messaged the Confederation of African Football to notify them about the incident, [9] turning down an offer from CSSC amounting 70000 Swazi lilangenis to legally buy the player [2] which resulted in Fashina being dropped from CSSC's squad. [10] Despite this, however, the Nigerian returned to ply his trade with them in 2010, [11] signing with CSM Jiul Petroșani of the Romanian Fourth Division until the end of the 2010–11 season [12] after a two-week trial with FC Astra Giurgiu. [13] There, he stated his ambition to play in a higher level of the Romanian football league system, netting three goals in his first 7 games. [13] Next, the striker moved to another Romanian team, Flacăra Făget, in 2013, but was assaulted by their director after being stubborn in leaving the club. [14]
Fashina is a practicer of Islam. [13]
