Super Falcons star shows style as she marks 26th birthday
Super Falcons of Nigeria star Rinsola Babajide celebrated her 26th birthday in style, showcasing her curves in a stunning red dress.
The Costa Tenerife forward marked the occasion on Monday, June 17, with a series of glamorous photos, sharing the message “BIRTHDAY QUEEN” with her fans.
Born in England to Nigerian immigrant parents, Babajide had the option to represent either England or Nigeria at the international level.
She made headlines in 2016 after scoring 14 goals in a 40-0 victory for the University of East London women’s football team against the University College London women’s football team.

Her club career has seen several moves, starting with a transfer from Crystal Palace Ladies to Millwall Lionesses in January 2015.
She later joined Watford Ladies in February 2017 and then moved to Liverpool in January 2018, where she became the second-leading goal scorer for the 2018–19 WSL season.
Babajide’s loan to Brighton & Hove Albion ended prematurely, and she subsequently signed with Spanish team Real Betis as a free agent. After 18 months, she moved to UD Granadilla Tenerife, signing a two-year contract.
Internationally, Babajide played for England at the Under-20 and Under-21 levels before switching her allegiance to Nigeria, following in the footsteps of Super Falcons star Ashleigh Plumptre.
Babajide is expected to be a key player for the Super Falcons in the upcoming Olympic Games.
