&lt;br /&gt;
==Club career==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Early career===&lt;br /&gt;
Adiyiah began his football career at [[Feyenoord Ghana]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;world soccer&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.worldsoccer.com/features/dominic_adiyiah_looks_set_to_be_a_star_of_the_future_writes_nick_bidwell_features_292092.html |title=Dominic Adiyiah looks set to be a star of the future |author=Nick Bidwell |date= |work=WorldSoccer.com |publisher=World Soccer |accessdate=23 February 2010 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110604163332/http://www.worldsoccer.com/features/dominic_adiyiah_looks_set_to_be_a_star_of_the_future_writes_nick_bidwell_features_292092.html |archivedate=4 June 2011 |df=dmy }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; He spent several years in Gomoa Fetteh, where the Academy is based, before transferring to [[Heart of Lions F.C.|Heart of Lions]] in 2007. After making his debut in the [[Ghana Premier League]] with the club based in [[Kpandu]], at the end of the 2007–08 season he was named Most Exciting Player of the league.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;most Exciting&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://ghanafoot.wordpress.com/2008/07/05/top-of-the-onetouch-premier-league-class/ |title=Top of the Onetouch Premier League Class |author=William Quarmine |date=5 July 2008 |work=GhanaFoot.WordPress.com |publisher=Football Made in Ghana |accessdate=23 February 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fredrikstad (2008–2010)===&lt;br /&gt;
In August 2008, Adiyiah made the move to Europe, being signed by [[Tippeligaen|Norwegian top flight]] club [[Fredrikstad FK|Fredrikstad]] for a fee of only £100k (approx. €125k as of that date).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;world soccer&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; He made his debut for the club in an away match against [[Aalesunds FK|Aalesund]], on 30 August. He went scoreless in four appearances during the 2008 season, as the team finished second in the league.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The following season, he scored twice during the training camp, but has not scored in the four league matches he appeared.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.fredrikstadfk.no/component/option,com_joomleague/func,showPlayer/p,19/pid,480/Itemid,460/ |title=Tippeligaen 2009 Dominic Adiyiah |author= |date= |work=FredrikstadFK.no |publisher=[[Fredrikstad FK]] |accessdate=23 February 2010 |language=Norwegian |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20091116044825/http://www.fredrikstadfk.no:80/component/option,com_joomleague/func,showPlayer/p,19/pid,480/Itemid,460/ |archivedate=16 November 2009 |df=dmy }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; He also made his debut in the [[UEFA Europa League|Europa League]], in the second leg of the third qualifying round against [[Lech Poznań]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.soccerway.com/matches/2009/08/06/europe/uefa-cup/kks-lech-poznan/fredrikstad-fotballklub/814036/ |title=Lech Poznan vs. Fredrikstad – 6 August 2009 |author= |date=6 August 2009 |work=SoccerWay.com |publisher=Soccer Way |accessdate=23 February 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Milan (2010–2012)===&lt;br /&gt;
In late October 2009, after impressing in the [[2009 FIFA U-20 World Cup|U-20 World Cup]], Adiyiah was reported to be close to joining [[Serie A]] club [[A.C. Milan|Milan]]. Speculation increased as Fredrikstad announced they had received a bid €500k for the young striker from a big European club.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.goal.com/en/news/10/italy/2009/10/29/1591855/milan-on-verge-of-signing-under-20-ghana-star-dominic |title=Milan on verge of signing under-20 Ghana star Dominic Adiyiah |author=Adam Scime |date=29 October 2009 |work=Goal.com |publisher= |accessdate=23 February 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The rumour was eventually confirmed by Milan CEO [[Adriano Galliani]] on 1 November,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=692382&amp;amp;sec=transfers&amp;amp;cc=5739 |title=AC Milan set to complete Adiyiah and Beckham deals |author= |date=1 November 2009 |work=SoccerNet.espn.go.com |publisher=[[ESPN]] |accessdate=23 February 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; and six days later the Ghanaian signed his new contract, as he had passed routine medical examinations.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.acmilan.com/NewsDetail.aspx?idNews=93500 |title=Great Leo, great play |author= |date=6 November 2009 |work=ACMilan.com |publisher=[[A.C.

&lt;br /&gt;
The move was ratified on 2 January 2010, the first day of the winter transfer window. However Adiyiah was still not able to play, since he was called up by the [[Ghana national football team|Ghana national team]] to take part in the [[2010 Africa Cup of Nations|African Nations Cup]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.acmilan.com/NewsDetail.aspx?idNews=114458 |archive-url=https://archive.is/20120720040628/http://www.acmilan.com/NewsDetail.aspx?idNews=114458 |dead-url=yes |archive-date=20 July 2012 |title=Ghana: African Cup of Nations about to begin |author= |date=8 January 2020 |work=ACMilan.com |publisher=A.C. Milan |accessdate=23 February 2010}} &amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Upon his return, a month later, he also secured an Italian work permit, which he was still lacking, thus becoming definitively eligible to play.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.goal.com/en/news/89/africa/2010/02/08/1781654/ghanas-dominic-adiyiah-secures-italian-work-permit-to-join |title=Ghana's Dominic Adiyiah secures Italian work permit to join Milan |author=K.N.S Mensah |date=8 February 2010 |work=Goal.com |publisher= |accessdate=23 February 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Despite this, he was never selected by head coach [[Leonardo Araújo|Leonardo]] during the remainder of the 2009–10 season. On 25 June 2012, Adiyiah completed a three-year [[Association football contracts|contract]] with Arsenal Kyiv, ending his three years career with AC Milan.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Ghana striker Dominic Adiyiah joins Arsenal Kiev&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Partizan (loan)===&lt;br /&gt;
Subsequently, Adiyiah was sent to [[Serbian SuperLiga]] club [[FK Partizan|Partizan]] on another loan deal until the end of the season&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |title=Dominic Adiyiah latest signing |url=http://www.partizan.rs/vest.php?Jezik=en&amp;amp;IDV=55&amp;amp;akcija=&amp;amp;prikaz1=2011&amp;amp;prikaz2=2&amp;amp;sec=2 |work=partizan.rs |publisher=[[FK Partizan|Fudbalski Klub Partizan]] |date=1 February 2011 |accessdate=1 February 2011}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; where he joined his national teammate [[Prince Tagoe]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Karşıyaka (loan)===&lt;br /&gt;
In the 2011 summer transfer window he signed a loan-deal with [[Karşıyaka S.K.|Karşıyaka]] who play in [[Bank Asya 1.

Adiyiah earned his first call-up with the [[Ghana national football team|Black Stars]] on 3 November 2009, shortly after the U-20 triumph, for a [[2010 FIFA World Cup qualification – CAF Third Round|World Cup qualification]] match against [[Mali national football team|Mali]], to be played on 15 November.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.ghanafa.org/blackstars/200911/4146.php |title=Milo calls up six from Satellites |author= |date=3 November 2009 |work=GhanaFA.org |publisher=Ghana Football Association |accessdate=23 February 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; However, he was left as an unused substitute.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/archive/southafrica2010/preliminaries/africa/matches/round=252295/match=300070356/report.html |title=Ghana – Mali |author= |date=15 November 2009 |work=fifa.com |publisher=FIFA |accessdate=23 February 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; He did make his senior debut three days later though, in a friendly against [[Angola national football team|Angola]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://news.myjoyonline.com/sports/200911/38111.asp |title=Ghana draws with Angola in friendly |author= |date=18 November 2009 |work=News.MyJoyOnLine.com |publisher=Joy OnLine |accessdate=23 February 2010 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100225134059/http://news.myjoyonline.com:80/sports/200911/38111.asp |archivedate=25 February 2010 |df=dmy }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; In January 2010, he was part of the Ghanaian team that reached the final at the [[2010 Africa Cup of Nations|African Nations Cup]]. Despite making only two substitute appearances, he showed glimpses of a player for the future.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://nationscup.mtnfootball.com/live/content.php?Item_ID=26321 |title=Dominic Adiyiah player profile |author= |date= |work=nationscup.mtnfootball.com |publisher=MTN Football |accessdate=23 February 2010 }}{{dead link|date=December 2016 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

In June of the same year, Adiyiah was called up to take part in the upcoming [[2010 FIFA World Cup|World Cup]], to be played in South Africa.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/archive/southafrica2010/news/newsid=1221401/index.html |title=Boateng handed Ghana spot |author= |date=30 May 2010 |work=fifa.com |publisher=FIFA |accessdate=2 June 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; He made his debut in the competition during the last match of the group stage against [[Germany national football team|Germany]], coming off the bench for the final minutes.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://soccernet.espn.go.com/report?id=264053&amp;amp;league=FIFA.WORLD&amp;amp;cc=5739&amp;amp;ver=global |title=Germans seal top spot |author= |date=23 June 2010 |work=SoccerNet.espn.go.com |publisher=[[ESPN]] |accessdate=3 July 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; After being left as an unused substitute in the round of 16, he was sent on in the quarter-finals against [[Uruguay national football team|Uruguay]]. In the very last minute of [[extra time]], Adiyiah's header was saved on the line by Uruguyan striker [[Luis Suárez]], who palmed the ball away with both his hands, resulting in a penalty kick for Ghana and Suarez being sent off. However, [[Asamoah Gyan]] smashed the penalty against the bar and the game went to the shootout. Adiyiah took the fourth penalty with his team trailing 2–3, but had his shot saved; [[Sebastián Abreu]] seized the chance by subsequently scoring the deciding penalty for Uruguay.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://soccernet.espn.go.com/report?id=264116&amp;amp;cc=5739&amp;amp;ver=global |title=Late heartache for Ghana |author= |date=2 July 2010 |work=SoccerNet.espn.go.com |publisher=[[ESPN]] |accessdate=3 July 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
