After impressing at Bristol City and Wolves, Ade Akinbiyi signed for Leicester as a replacement for Liverpool bound Emile Heskey.
His poor form for Leicester and his 5.5 million pound transfer fee saw him nicknamed “Ade Akin-bad-buy”. He managed just 11 goals in 58 matches for the Foxes and his 2 year stint ended with Leicester’s relegation from the Premier League.
Ade went on to have a successful career in the lower leagues but has never been a good enough player to perform at the highest level.
