Norwich City defender Emmanuel Adegboyega has completed a permanent move to League One Rotherham United for an undisclosed fee. Adegboyega has signed a contract until 2027. A Rotherham club statement said that securing the 22-year-old’s signature is in keeping with the club’s efforts to implement a recruitment policy for youngsters to further their development. The statement added that Adegboyega was a long-term target for the Millers and a player whose progress has been tracked closely by the club since their interest in the summer.

Rotherham United are at the forefront of the pursuit for Emmanuel Adegboyega, a defender for Norwich City of Irish-Nigerian descent. Norwich is permitting the 22-year-old to leave during the current transfer window. He has not made a senior appearance for the club since he signed in the summer of 2023. The Pink Un has also mentioned that fellow League One clubs Stevenage and Wycombe Wanderers have an interest in the defender, who is a former Ireland U21 international with two caps. Norwich's decision to allow Adegboyega to leave follows the club's activation of an option to extend his contract by an additional year. This extension was prompted by his loan spell at Scottish Premiership team Dundee United last season, which was described as impressive. His contract with Norwich is valid until June 2026, and his market value is currently €350k, according to Transfermarkt. During the 2025/2026 season, Adegboyega has scored one goal in two appearances for the U21s.
