Alabi Is Added To Orient Squad As Fee Agreed With Rovers

Leyton Orient have paid Tranmere Rovers a fee to lure striker James Alabi to E10.

The 23-year-old forward have signed a two-year contract and adds muscle to the O’s forward line.

The London-born attacker is excited about working with Justin Edinburgh and giving his career a kick-start in the capital.

“It was an easy decision for me and I can’t wait to get going,” he told the club’s website.

“My ambition is to get as many goals as I can, and the biggest ambition for me is to get this club promoted back to the Football League."

Edinburgh said: “He’s got a lot of attributes that you look for in a new signing. First and foremost, his work ethic is excellent, while physical attributes are a big positive. He’s got pace and power and is a good finisher.

“The club were interested in signing him last season but I believe the fee got in the way so when we were made aware of his availability, we jumped at the chance.

“We saw off a lot of competition to sign him and once I had met with him face-to-face, I had no hesitations”
