Toyosi Olusanya has today sealed a loan move to Aberdeen from Major League Soccer side Houston Dynamo until the end of the 2025/26 season.

The 28-year-old forward returns to the Scottish Premiership, where he previously enjoyed a successful spell with St Mirren before moving to the United States in 2025.

Olusanya began his professional career with AFC Wimbledon and has also had spells with Middlesbrough, St Mirren and Arbroath, as well as a more recent loan period at Doncaster Rovers.

After completing the move from Houston, the striker spoke to RedTV.

“I am very happy to be here. When I first heard of the interest, I felt that coming here would be a good move,” he said.

“Aberdeen is a huge club. I’ve seen the passion the fans have for the team, driving them on to do well. Everywhere they go, the supporters travel in big numbers and really get behind the team, so we need to give that back with our performances and hard work.

“I want to show what I can do. The last two years at St Mirren were good for me. Scottish football is where I really made a name for myself and hopefully, I can pick up where I left off.

“I want to score goals, work hard and be a team player. I’m looking forward to meeting everyone. I’ve heard it’s a good group of boys and I can’t wait to get started. I’m ready to go on Saturday if I’m called upon.”

With Olusanya the third arrival of the January transfer window, Aberdeen FC Sporting Director Lutz Pfannenstiel believes the Club is making positive progress.

“We’ve been clear that during this window we need to make changes to the dynamics of the squad. We’ve brought new players in, seen some move on, and there may be more to follow as we look to redress the balance,” said Pfannenstiel.

“Toyosi’s arrival bolsters our attacking options and offers a different threat to what we currently have in the squad. He is physical and brings an aggression that we need at this moment.

“He is hungry to get started and we believe his addition will help us achieve our goals between now and the end of the season.”
