Adebayo Adeleye has been handed a contract extension by his Israeli club, Hapoel Jerusalem.

Adeleye, 22, has been in fine form for the better part of the Israeli league season this term and had been linked with a move to mainstream Europe.

His profile continues to rise with outstanding saves to his name, nailing down the starter’s berth for the club and has kept 10 clean sheets so far this season.

The new deal will keep him at the club until 2026, but Adeleye also could be interested in a move, this summer, to Europe.

So far this season, the Nigerian has made 27 appearances, including in the Championship playoff rounds, and has conceded 28 goals as first choice at Hapoel Jerusalem.
