Samuel Ayorinde (born 20 October 1974) is a Nigerian former footballer who played at both professional and international levels. A striker, he played professionally for a number clubs throughout Africa, Europe and Asia, and he represented Nigeria at senior international level.
Ayorinde was born in Lagos on 20 October 1974, [1] and played club football for NEPA Lagos, Stade Tunisien and Sturm Graz, [2] before joining Leyton Orient in September 1995 though a lengthy wait for a work permit meant he did not make his league debut against Cambridge United until May 1996. [3] He made 16 league and cup appearances for Orient, scoring two goals, but could not hold down a place in the first team and, after a succession of loan moves, transferred to Football Conference side Dover Athletic in December 1997. [3] He later played for Bangor City, Hapoel Beit She'an, Assyriska, Stalybridge Celtic, AIK, Shenyang Ginde, Syrianska, Da Nang, Persija Jakarta, Gröndals IK and Djurgårdsbrunns FC. [2]
