Ishmail Seremba played for Norwich's Under-18s against Southend in BC Worldwide Challenge Trophy in July 2012. Formerly with Chelsea, he plays as an attacking midfielder or forward.

In May 2013, he moved to the University of Akron in the USA ahead of the 2013/14 academic year. Seremba said “I was offered a short-term contract at Norwich, but didn’t feel I would be left in the best situation if things didn’t out for me there. The life of a footballer is a short one, so I felt I needed to prepare for a life after a career I may or may not have so being given the opportunity to work toward a college degree while still strongly pursuing a career in the sport you love in the end stood out as a no brainer to me.”

He also revealed in an interview with TopDrawerSoccer.com that he had trials with Everton and Newcastle.
