Andrew Omobamidele is a Republic of Ireland international footballer who plays as a centre-back for RC Strasbourg Alsace in France’s Ligue 1. A precise, verified net worth figure is not publicly available, but based on his reported transfer fees and top-flight wages, his net worth is unofficially estimated in the region of $1-3 million.
Early Life & Family
Andrew Abiola Omobamidele was born on June 23, 2002, in Leixlip, County Kildare, Ireland, to an Irish mother and a Nigerian father. He began playing youth football with Leixlip United, where he played alongside future Republic of Ireland international goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu in the Dublin District Schoolboys League, before joining Norwich City’s academy in England in 2019.
Rise to Fame
Omobamidele signed his first professional contract with Norwich City in December 2020 and made his senior debut in the Championship against Cardiff City in January 2021. His performances as a young centre-back helped Norwich win promotion to the Premier League that season, and he went on to make his top-flight debut against Arsenal in September 2021, quickly establishing himself as one of the more promising young defenders in English football.
Career History
After winning the EFL Championship with Norwich City in 2020-21 and making 50 league appearances for the club, Omobamidele moved to Nottingham Forest in September 2023 for a reported fee of around £11 million, going on to make 11 Premier League appearances. In January 2025 he joined French club RC Strasbourg Alsace on loan, with the move made permanent in June 2025 on a contract running to 2029. He has since become a regular starter for Strasbourg, and as of the most recently available information continues to play for the club.
How They Built Their Wealth
Omobamidele’s earnings have come from his wages as a professional footballer across spells in the EFL Championship, the Premier League and, most recently, Ligue 1, together with the transfer fee income generated by his 2023 move to Nottingham Forest. As a current international with a growing reputation, he is also positioned to attract sponsorship and boot-deal income typical of top-flight professionals, though no such deals have been independently confirmed.
Personal Life
Omobamidele has spoken publicly about his mixed Irish and Nigerian heritage, growing up in County Kildare with an Irish mother and Nigerian father. He represented the Republic of Ireland at every youth level before making his senior international debut in September 2021 against Portugal in a World Cup qualifier.
With a career that has taken him from Norwich City’s academy to the Premier League and now Ligue 1, Andrew Omobamidele’s net worth is unofficially estimated in the low millions of dollars, reflecting his wages and transfer history as an established Republic of Ireland international.
