He has struggled to stay fit in recent years which cost him his place in the national team.

Since leaving Turkish Super Lig club Trabzonspor in January 2020, Onazi has also played for Danish club SonderjysKE and Zalgris of Lithuania.

Al-Adalah occupy second position on the league table with 36 points from 20 matches.
