Club career

Malmö FF

Born in Lagos, Nigeria, Ofere started his football at Nigerian side Enugu Rangers and progressed his youth team, as he went on to make seventy–seven appearances and scoring eighteen times in all competitions. At the point, Ofere wanted to play football in Europe as he believed it would benefited his development than in Africa, leading to a trial at Allsvenskan side Malmö FF.[1] It was announced on 1 September 2005 that Ofere joined Allsvenskan side Malmö FF on loan for the rest of the 2005 season following an impressive trial.[2] Upon doing so, he was granted a work permit to play in Sweden.[3]

Ofere made his Malmö FF debut, coming on as a substitute, in a 1–0 loss against Djurgårdens IF on 12 September 2005.[4] He then made his European debut, coming on as a 65th-minute substitute, in a 4–1 loss against Beşiktaş in the second leg of the UEFA Cup first round.[5] Four days later on 3 October 2005, Ofere scored his first Malmö FF goal, in a 4–1 loss against Landskrona.[6] It was announced on 21 October 2005, Ofere signed for the club permanently on a three-year contract.[7] Having appeared in every match since joining the club, he made seven appearances and scoring once in all competitions.[8]

Ahead of the 2006 season, Ofere continued to impress in the club's pre–season tour, including scoring a hat–trick against Thanda Lions on 13 January 2006.[9] Despite suffering from a thigh injury, which he quickly recovered from, Ofere scored on his first appearance of the season, losing 2–1 against Hammarby on 17 April 2006.[10] Three weeks later on 8 May 2006, he scored his second goal of the season, in a 3–1 win against Helsingborg.[11] However, Ofere found his first team opportunities limited, due to competitions from Afonso Alves, José Júnior, Niklas Skoog, Jari Litmanen, Jesper Bech and Jonatan Johansson.[12] As a result, he was sent to the B team for the rest of the 2006 season.[13] At the end of the 2006 season, Ofere made nine appearances and scoring two times in all competitions.

In the 2007 season, Ofere spent most of the season, mostly coming on from the substitute bench.[14] This was due to his continuous struggle to fight for his place in the first team, but was called up to the starting line–up following the injuries of strikers.[15] Despite this, he scored four goals, in an 11–0 win against Stenungsunds in the second round of the Svenska Cupen.[16] During the season, Ofere was also sent to the B team.[17] At the end of the 2007 season, he made fifteen appearances and scoring four times in all competitions.

At the start of the 2008 season, Ofere suffered a groin injury that he sustained at the pre–season and was sidelined for a month.[18] It wasn't until on 28 April 2008 when he made his first appearance of the season, coming on as a 34th-minute substitute, in a 4–2 loss against Helsingborgs.[19] In a follow–up match against Örebro, Ofere scored a brace, in a 3–0 win.[20] Since returning from injury, Ofere became a first team regular, playing in the striker position under the new management of Roland Nilsson.[21] It wasn't until on 25 August 2008 when he scored the equalising goal for the side, in a 1–1 draw against Trelleborg.[22] Ofere then scored three goals in three matches between 30 September 2008 and 19 October 2008, scoring against Helsingborgs, Örebro and GAIS.[23] In the last game of the season against GIF Sundsvall, he scored twice for the side, in a 6–0 win.[24] At the end of the 2008 season, he made twenty–one appearances and scoring nine times in all competitions. Following this, Ofere signed a two-year contract with the club.[25]

The 2009 season saw Ola Toivonen left the club, leading Ofere continuing to be a first team regular for the side.[26] However, he struggled to score goals since the start of the 2009 season.[27] It wasn't until on 14 September 2009 when Ofere scored his first goals of the season, in a 2–1 win against Djurgården.[28] This was followed up by scoring against Elfsborg (twice), Gefle (twice) and Hammarby.[29] After serving a one match suspension, he then scored his fourth brace of the season, as well as, two other goals, in a 5–4 loss against Kalmar.[30] Ofere followed up by scoring his tenth goal of the season, in a 1–1 draw against IF Brommapojkarna in the last game of the season.[31] At the end of the 2009 season, he went on to make twenty–nine appearances and scoring ten times in all competitions. Following this, his performance in the 2009 season attracted interests from Championship side Newcastle United keen to sign him, although the move was denied by Malmö FF.[32]

Having missed the opening game of the season due to a groin injury, Ofere made his first appearance of the 2010 season, coming on as an 83rd-minute substitute, in a 3–0 win against Örebro on 23 March 2010.[33] He then scored two goals against Kalmar and Häcken.[34] However during a 2–1 loss against Helsingborgs on 20 April 2010, Ofere suffered a knee injury and was substituted in the 17th minute.[35] As a result, he was sidelined for eight weeks.[36] He was then sent–off on two occasions; the first one came on 4 July 2010, in a 4–1 loss against Mjällby and the second time came on 17 July 2010, in a 2–0 loss against AIK.[37] Once again, Ofere's interest was re–ignited once more, as he was linked with a move to Middle East.[38] Ofere rejected a move to China, citing his desire to continue playing in Europe.[39] By the time Ofere departed from Malmö FF, he made eight appearances and scoring two times in all competitions.

U.S. Lecce

On 30 August 2010, he was signed by Lecce on a three-year contract.[40] Upon moving to Leece, Ofere felt the move was the important step of his career.[41]

At the start of the 2011–12 season, Ofere started signs of recovery on his right knee, possibly making his return.[50] It wasn't until on 11 September 2011 when he made his return from injury, coming on as a 63rd-minute substitute, in the opening game of the season, in a 2–0 loss against Udinese.[51] However, Ofere struggled to first team and appeared on the substitute bench.[52] To make it worse, Ofere injured his right knee and needed an operation that caused him to miss out throughout the season.[53] Ofere made his return on 5 May 2012 against Fiorentina, where he came on as a substitute for Andrea Bertolacci in the 76th minute.[54] Though the club was relegated to Serie B, Ofere made seven appearances for the club in all competitions.[55]
