​The announcement was made via the club’s official Instagram page on Friday, where the 30-year-old midfielder was unveiled as the latest addition to the Wasps’ squad. Ayinde joins the Gothenburg side seeking a fresh challenge after a highly successful tenure with their league rivals.

​The Super Falcons star arrives from FC Rosengård, where she established herself as one of the most reliable defensive midfielders in the division. During her three-season stint in Malmö, Ayinde was instrumental in Rosengård’s dominance, helping the club secure three Damallsvenskan titles and the Svenska Cupen.

​Her wealth of experience—including a spell in the NWSL with Western New York Flash and over 50 caps for Nigeria—provides her new club with a veteran presence capable of commanding high-stakes matches.
