Nicholas Olushola Ajose (born 7 October 1991) is a former English professional footballer who played as a forward.
Ajose began his career with Manchester United, but never made an appearance in the first team and spent much of the 2010–11 season on loan to Bury. He joined Peterborough United in July 2011, but spent time on loan with Scunthorpe United, Chesterfield, Crawley Town and Swindon Town, as well as another six months with Bury, before joining Leeds United in August 2014. After a spell on loan with Crewe Alexandra during the 2014–15 season, his contract with Leeds was terminated by mutual consent in September 2015, when he rejoined Swindon. In June 2016, Ajose moved to Charlton Athletic, where he made infrequent appearances, resulting in loan spells with Swindon, Bury and Mansfield Town. He was released at the end of the 2018–19 season, when he signed for Exeter.
Ajose played for England at under-16 and under-17 level. Also eligible to play for Nigeria, he was called up to the Nigeria under-20s for the 2009 African Youth Championship.
