The Club are excited to announce the signing of defender Ike Orji from Cray Wanderers.
Having started his career within the academy ranks at Maidstone United and Chatham Town, the 22-year-old went on to make over 70 appearances for the latter in a four-year spell.
Orji’s impressive performances at The Bauvill Stadium caught the attention of Sky Bet League Two side Gillingham who we signed for at the start of 2023. He returned to the Chats on loan and played a key role in their Isthmian South East Division title win that season.
After making his Gillingham first-team debut in the 2023/24 season against Portsmouth, Orji secured valuable Enterprise National League South experience at Welling United and Hemel Hempstead Town.
His release from Gillingham came ahead of last season where he spent time with Chelmsford City and Cray Wanderers.
Welcome to New Lodge, Ike!
