Professional

On October 8, 2021, following a trial period, Fawole agreed to join Aldershot Town of the National League, before immediately joining Farnborough on a short-term loan.[8] Fawole returned to Aldershot in January and went onto feature four times in all competitions before another loan move, this time joining Salisbury in February.[9] On 22 March 2022, Fawole then joined Southern League Premier Division South side Beaconsfield Town on loan.[10] Fawole was released at the end of the 2021–22 season.[11]
In August 2022, Fawole joined Maidstone United, following a successful trial period and went onto make his debut during a 2–1 home victory over York City.[12]
On March 4, 2023, Fawole agreed to join Dulwich Hamlet F.C of the National League South after being released from Maidstone United and a brief one-month stint at Aveley FC. He made his debut for the club that same day in the 70th minute of a 1–0 win against fellow National League South side St. Albans City F.C.
