Kain James Kofi Adom (born 7 September 2001) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for EFL League One club Burton Albion.

Career

[edit]

Adom started his non-league career with Staines Town and Ashford Town, before an impressive 2022–23 season with Hanwell Town. In July 2023, Adom joined National League South side Welling United on non-contract terms following a successful trial period.[3]

Gateshead

[edit]

In January 2024, Adom joined National League club Gateshead.[4][5]

In February 2025, he joined fellow National League side AFC Fylde on loan for the remainder of the season.[6] The following month, his loan was terminated to allow him to be loaned out to Sutton United for the remainder of the season.[7]

Adom started the 2025–26 season in impressive form, being named the club's player of the month for August following four goals in eight games.[8] Having struggled to find consistent game-time under previous managers, often deployed at right wing-back, he continued to impress manager Alun Armstrong in a more attacking role.[9]

Burton Albion

[edit]

On 9 January 2026, Adom signed for League One club Burton Albion on an initial eighteen-month contract for an undisclosed fee.[10][11] He made his debut the following day, assisting his side's first goal in a 5–0 FA Cup Third Round thrashing of Boreham Wood.[12]
