Ovie Ejaria, a 28-year-old English midfielder, is looking for a new club after ending his time at Real Oviedo and not finding a destination during the transfer market in Spain. The player, now free agent, has used LinkedIn to make his availability public and contact possible teams.

Ejaria posted his professional profile on September 9th, after the transfer window had already closed in the major leagues. In the message, he presents himself as a midfielder capable of playing as a 6, 8, or 10, in addition to offering himself as a left winger.

Ovie Ejaria leaves behind his time at Real Oviedo

Real Oviedo signed Ejaria in August 2025 with an initially agreed contract of two seasons, following several weeks of training with the team led by Veljko Paunovic. The footballer arrived after stints at Reading, as well as prior experience with Liverpool, Rangers, and Sunderland.

His time in Asturias ended sooner than expected. Oviedo decided to terminate his contract in May 2026, despite still having a year left, paying €20,000 for the early release.

During the 2025/26 season, Ejaria played in 8 LaLiga matches with the Asturian team, accumulating 196 minutes, as per Opta's career data. Oviedo ended up being relegated from the First Division.

The player arrived at Carlos Tartiere after a long period of irregular competition. His previous stable spell was at Reading, where he played 127 matches between 2020 and 2024, scoring 9 goals and providing 13 assists.

LinkedIn becomes Ovie Ejaria's route

The current circumstances of Ovie Ejaria allow him to join a team despite the transfer window closure, as he has been unattached since July 1, 2026. Transfermarkt lists the player as a free agent, with his last club being Real Oviedo.

On LinkedIn, Ejaria has detailed the positions he can play and has requested clubs or contacts in need of a midfielder to reach out to him directly. He also states that he is based in London and has experience in Liverpool, Sunderland, Rangers, Reading, and Real Oviedo.

Ovie Ejaria's profile also shows an estimated market value of €400,000 according to Transfermarkt, although this amount does not imply a transfer fee as he is currently a free agent.

His next destination is still undetermined. With the market closed, Ejaria can sign as a free agent with a club that has a spot available and values his experience in LaLiga, England, and Scotland; for now, LinkedIn is the tool he has utilized to communicate his availability in the market.
