Club career
On 6 January 2009, Étoile Sportive du Sahel announced the signing of 18-year-old Akinsola, who agree to a five-year deal at Stade Olympique de Sousse. However, his official debut was delayed due to the fact he was appearing at the African Youth Championship in Kigali.Akinsola apparently had plenty of suitors vying for his signature, but decided to link up with the Tunisians, joining countryman Emeka Opara. On 31 January, however, he changed clubs again, signing a 3+2 contract with Spain's UD Salamanca and appearing rarely over the course of two second division seasons, his first competitive appearance only taking place on 9 May due to bureaucratic problems; additionally, he spent several weeks on the sidelines with a thigh injury.
In the summer of 2010, Akinsola stayed in Spain but dropped down to the third level, moving to Zamora CF. He continued competing in that tier in the following years with Cádiz CF, FC Cartagena and CE L'Hospitalet, this being interspersed by a brief spell in Cyprus.
