Nigerian forward Rafiat Folakemi Sule is back in Vicenza, returning to the Italian city with more than a decade of competitive football experience and a proven reputation as a goal scorer.

 Sule first established herself as one of Nigeria’s most prolific young forwards during her time with Bayelsa Queens. In 2015, she scored 11 league goals to finish as the Nigeria Women Premier League’s leading scorer, while also adding two goals in the Federation Cup.

 She backed up that achievement the following season, scoring nine league goals in 2016 to finish top of the league scoring charts once again.

 Her consistency earned her a move to Rivers Angels, where she continued to make an impact in front of goal, including a two-goal performance against Heartland Queens.

 Sule also carried her scoring form onto the international stage. At the 2019 WAFU Women’s Cup, she scored twice against Niger in Nigeria’s emphatic 15–0 victory before finding the net again against Mali in the group stage.

 Her European career has since taken her through Serie A, Serie B and Serie C, giving her valuable experience across Italy’s women's football pyramid.

 Most recently, Sule represented Lumezzane in Serie B, scoring three goals in 21 appearances. Her standout moment came in May 2026, when she scored twice against Venezia.

 Now, following her move from Lumezzane to Real Vicenza Women, Sule returns to Serie C with extensive experience, international exposure and a scoring record that underlines her ability to make an impact in front of goal.
