Osei signs on for new season

by Rob Hodder


Dorchester Town Football Club are pleased to announce that Leon Osei has agreed terms on a short term contract that will initially extend his stay with the Magpies into the new season.

The 20-year-old former Q.P.R. and Stevenage player has spent the pre-season training full-time with the club and has made a big impression on manager Shaun Brooks in the friendly games so far.

Speaking earlier today on the capture of the young midfielder on a more permanent basis he said, "Leon has heaps of raw talent that is just waiting to be nurtured and I look forward to seeing what else we can get from him.

"He is a big, strong lad and has a good turn of pace which can take him past players easily.

"If he gets his head down and continues to work hard I think he could be a real find for us."

Osei, who also has non-League experience in the Ryman league with both Leyton and Wingate & Finchley, was equally excited about joining the club. He said, "I am really looking forward to having a good season with Dorchester.

"We have a great set of lads here and I am looking to set the place on fire with the rest of the team and giving our supporters plenty to cheer about.

"The training has been fantastic and I would like to thank the gaffer for giving me this opportunity and also Nathan Peprah for introducing me to the club."
