He made his professional debut on 29 March in a 4–0 victory over Whitecaps FC 2. On 16 April, he made his first start for S2 and netted a brace against Tulsa Roughnecks FC. Unfortunately, the match ended in a 4–3 defeat.

In November 2018, Lawal went on trial with Fresno FC and later signed with the club on 23 January 2019.

Following the dissolution of Fresno FC, Lawal signed with the St. Louis Ambush of the Major Arena Soccer League.
