Adeniran had just enjoyed a brief but successful loan stint in the USL with San Antonio before being recalled back to his parent club, and on this evidence he could form a dangerous striker duo with Nicholas Gioacchini while Joao Klauss (quadriceps) remains injured.

He's taken 15 shots (eight on target) with nine chances created in that span as well.
