Club career

York9

On 3 December 2018 Adjei signed a two-year contract with Canadian Premier League side York9, reuniting with his former manager at Aurora FC, Jim Brennan, and becoming the first foreign signing in league history. He made his debut for York9 in their inaugural match against Forge FC on April 27, 2019. He scored his first goal for the club in their following game on May 4, 2019 against Cavalry FC in a 2-1 defeat. On 1 February 2020, Adjei agreed to the mutual termination of his contract.
In 2020, he said that "It is much tougher and you are left a little more on the field, you have to manage yourself a little more. You do not have the same support".
