In 2004, Edereho made his first move to Europe and was transferred to KF Prishtina playing in the Football Superleague of Kosovo. The Finnish Veikkausliiga League was his next destination where he played for RoPS Rovaniemi, Tervarit Oulu and KuPS Kuopio where he impressed enough to transfer to Iranian giants Persepolis FC in 2006.
