Adjei made his HTU debut in the club's final Divisions match, as he came off the bench against Pitchero United in a 7–0 victory at the White Hart Lane Community Sports Centre. His first start came on the club's Spanish tour, as the forward started a 3–0 win against an Eibar XI in Arrasate/Mondragón. He got his first assist in HTU's last match of chapter one, setting up Dan Brown's opener in a 10–2 rout of Primetubers. In total, Adjei made 6 appearances across 2016–18.

His competitive debut for the club arrived on 25 August in a win away to Braintree Town Reserves, while his first official goal (and first competitive start) came in a 3–0 victory away to Frenford on 22 September; he also grabbed an assist in that latter match. Adjei scored further goals in 2018–19 against Haverhill Borough (cup), Fire United (league) and Hashtag Academy (friendly). HTU were promoted as champions at the conclusion of the season, though Adjei didn't feature competitively past January 2019.

2019–20
Adjei featured in pre-season friendlies versus Burnham and Tilbury, prior to appearing for the final time off the bench in an Essex Thames-Side Trophy first round loss to Brentwood Town on 11 September.

2020–21
Adjei would not feature at senior level in 2020–21, though would occasionally train with the first-team squad. He would predominantly feature for Kiernan Hughes-Mason's reserves, making 7 appearances and scoring 1 goal (versus Barkingside Reserves on 25 September) as they finished 15th in a curtailed Essex Senior League, Reserve Division 2 campaign.

2022–23
After departing around a year earlier, Adjei made a return in HTU colours in August 2022 for a 6-a-side tournament that took place at the Casa dos Atletas in Algés, Portugal.
