The former Ghana international spent three seasons at Villa Park, becoming their top scorer with 15 goals in the 2017-18 season and achieving Premier League promotion via the play-offs the following year. Besides QPR and Villa, Adomah has played for Barnet, Bristol City, Middlesbrough, Nottingham Forest, and Cardiff City, amassing 775 career appearances.
