Oluwaferanmi Okunlola signs with the Alpine Rams

•

The Alpine Rams have added another versatile piece to their defensive roster, signing British-Nigerian defensive back Oluwaferanmi Okunlola. At just 22 years old, Okunlola brings youth, athleticism and positional flexibility to the Swiss franchise ahead of their debut AFLE season.

A versatile defensive talent

What makes Okunlola an interesting addition is his ability to contribute in multiple roles. While primarily a defensive back, he is also capable of lining up as a linebacker, giving the Alpine Rams valuable flexibility when it comes to building their defensive game plans. That kind of versatility is always an asset for a coaching staff looking to keep opposing offenses guessing.

With Okunlola on board, the Alpine Rams add a young and adaptable talent to their defensive unit as they put the final pieces of their roster together ahead of the 2026 season.
