Nigerian forward Ade Adeyemo has earned a spot in the League One Team of the Week by WhoScored.com following his exceptional performance for Crawley Town in their recent match against Peterborough United. Despite Crawley’s 4-3 loss, Adeyemo was a standout performer, scoring one goal and excelling in multiple areas.
