Club career
Ibilola spent part of his youth career with Benin's Tonnerre d'Abomey and in the United States with Chicago Magic PSG.[2][3] He began his senior career with Brasilis in 2017, before joining Ponte Preta a year later.[1][4][5] He made his debut in a Copa do Brasil tie against Internacional on 21 February 2018, prior to making his first Campeonato Paulista appearance during a home loss versus Bragantino in March.[1][6] Five appearances later, Ibilola scored his first goal in a 3–1 defeat away to São Bento.[1] In February 2019, Ibilola moved to Campeonato Paulista Segunda Divisão side Francana.[7]
In early 2020, Ibilola had a trial with Polish III liga side Hutnik Kraków.[8] He featured in a friendly with Stal Rzeszów.[9]
International career
Ibilola represented Benin at U17 level.[10] In April 2014, he scored three goals as Benin won the 2014 WAFU ‘B’ U-17 Championship held in Togo.[11] Three months later, in July 2014, Ibilola scored in a 1–0 victory over Mali in 2015 African U-17 Championship qualifying.[10][12] However, the result was later revoked after Benin featured four ineligible players, including Ibilola, in the match.[13] He also received call-ups to the Benin U20s.[8]
