Josh Debayo Signs Up

Jul 27 2021 18:30

Defender Josh Debayo has today joined us on a one year deal.   The 24 year old left back started his youth career in London with Fulham and Chelsea. He has also had spells at Southampton and Leicester City in their youth set up. Three years ago he signed for Cheltenham where he went out on loan to Dover. The London born Nigerian rejected a new deal with The Robins and joined his last club Wealdstone but saw his time there cut short by the Covid shutdown.

Following the signing, Manager Allan Johnston said “Josh is one of several players we have been taking a look at over the past week or so and he has the quality we are looking for. He has recently been on trial with Northampton so we are pleased that he has decided to make the move north of the border instead”.

Josh should go into the squad to face Partick Thistle on Saturday subject to international clearance being received in time. He will wear shirt number 13.
