19-year-old Chinedu is a left-sided defender and joined the Bees for his first experience in League Two during the 2026 January transfer window.

The youngster spent time in Blackburn Rovers’ youth set-up before moving to the O’s, where he signed his professional contract last summer and made his competitive debut in a Vertu Trophy fixture in October last year.

The defender has enjoyed multiple loan spells in the early stages of his professional career, with St Albans City and Hemel Hempstead in the National League South, before spending time with Wealdstone in the National League earlier this season.
