Career
Born in Rouen, Ukwuije joined the youth categories of Cádiz in July 2024, from hometown side Quevilly-Rouen.[1][2] In that season, he mainly featured with the Juvenil squad, but also made his senior debut with the C-team in the División de Honor.[3]
Promoted to the reserves in Tercera Federación ahead of the 2025–26 campaign,[4] Ukwuije renewed his contract until 2029 in December 2025.[5] On 16 January 2026, he and another three Cádiz players were loaned to Primera Federación side Atlético Sanluqueño CF, until June.[6]
Back to Cádiz in July 2026, Ukwuije spent the entire pre-season with the first team, and made his professional debut on 15 August of that year, starting in a 0–0 Segunda División home draw against RC Celta Fortuna.[7][8]
