Welling United are delighted to confirm the arrival of defender Udoka Chima.

The 23-year-old centre-back came through the academy at Burnley, before heading to Scotland with Queen of the South in 2021.

Spells with Cheshunt, Harrow Borough and Kings Langley followed, prior to a move to Canada with Calgary-based outfit Cavalry FC.

Chima returned to England with Worthing in 2023, but an injury halted his progress with the Rebels and in March 2024 he would join Luxembourg National Division side Fola Esch.

After an eight-month stay in Luxembourg, he headed back to England with St Albans City, and also Carshalton Athletic before heading abroad again, this time to Sweden with Gute in February.

He now arrives at Park View Road to provide further defensive options for the Wings.

Meanwhile, the club can confirm that Marcel McIntosh has left the club, while Christian Scott has returned to his parent club Wealdstone following the expiration of his loan.

The club would like to thank both Marcel and Christian for their efforts during their time at Park View Road.
