PLAYER BIO
The pacey winger began his League of Ireland career with Dundalk and Ubaezuonu featured heavily in the academy system at Oriel Park before Stephen Kenny handed him his first team debut against Crumlin United.
Ubaezuonu made a number of first team appearances for Dundalk at the tail end of the 2017 season before joining Galway United on a six month loan in 2018 and the energetic midfielder made an impact at Eamonn Deacy Park, scoring 4 goals, which prompted Alan Murphy to extend his loan deal until the end of the season.
In 2019, Ubaezuonu saw his season with Longford Town disrupted by a troublesome injury, but in the meantime he’s recovered well and has been featuring and scoring regularly for Dundalk Institute of Technology at college level.
