Semi Ajayi will play top-flight club football for the second time in his professional career after Hull City gained promotion to the Premier League after nine years.
The Super Eagles played the entire duration of the playoff final at Wembley as the Tigers sealed a 1-0 victory over Middlesbrough.
Ayaji played on the right side of defence as Hull City lined up with three men at the back on Saturday afternoon.
A few days after missing out on Scotland’s World Cup squad, Oliver McBurnie scored the decisive goal that sent Hull City back to the Premier League.
The Scottish striker scored with a tap-in from a lucky rebound that fell to his feet close to the goal line in the 95th minute.
Hull City are set to earn at least £200m in prize money for winning the playoff final.
