Career
Adé intended to play in Thailand but he was victim of a fraud when the agent abandoned him while in Thailand.[2] Since he couldn't play in Thailand, Adé moved to the United States and started playing for Miami United.[3][4]
In 2017, Adé went to Santiago Morning. In his first season, he played 23 matches and scored 1 goal.[1] An agent sent the videos of Adé playing for Miami United to the president of Primera B de Chile club Magallanes and the club hired Adé.[2] After 4 years in Chile, Adé had the opportunity to play at First Division level in Ecuador, when he signed with Mushuc Runa S.C. in 2021.[2] A year later, Adé was crowned as champions of 2022 Ecuadorian Serie A with S.D. Aucas.[2] In 2023, Adé became a top player in Ecuador playing for L.D.U. Quito.[2]
Adé made his international debut for Haiti in 2016.[4] He became captain in 2021.[2]
