Club career

Early career

Aribo played for Staines Town under Marcus Gayle in the Isthmian League Premier Division, winning the club's academy player of the year award in April 2014.[3]

Charlton Athletic

Aribo joined Charlton Athletic in September 2015 following a successful trial, and signed a one-year contract in May 2016.[4] He made his first team debut as a 62nd-minute substitute for Andrew Crofts in a 2–0 defeat to Crawley Town in an EFL Trophy group stage match at The Valley on 16 October 2016.[5]

Rangers

Aribo was offered a new contract by Charlton at the end of the 2018–19 season,[6] but he instead opted to sign a four-year deal with Scottish Premiership club Rangers.[7] He made his competitive debut for the club on 9 July 2019 in a 4–0 win over St Joseph's of Gibraltar in the Europa League.[8] He suffered a head injury in a match in September 2019.[9]

Style of play

Speaking in October 2016, Aribo said that his strengths were "driving with the ball and getting up the pitch".[10]
