Uche Agada began his football journey at the 36 Lion Youth Club, where he played from the age of 10 to 16, laying the foundation for his promising career. He later moved to Owerri, Imo State, where his father, Barrister Gregory Chimezie Agada, facilitated his registration with Papilo FC.

The talented young striker also had a brief stint with the Enyimba Feeders Team in Aba, further honing his skills and gaining valuable experience.

Now 18 years old and standing at an impressive 1.90 meters, Agada has returned to his roots at 36 Lion, backed by the unwavering support of his uncle, Engineer Stanley Anih (popularly known as Ntu Ukana), and his agent, Chukwuji Great Omenebele.

Coach Akinshola Akinrele, who plays a mentor-like role for all players at 36 Lion, expressed his delight at Agada’s homecoming. “I’m very happy to have him back. Uche is a talented striker, and I have no doubt he’ll score plenty of goals. With his potential, I believe he’ll soon make the move to a bigger club,” he said.
