Gladiators bring in Jesurun Uchebegulam

The Nigerian-born winger grew up in Italy before moving to England as a teenager. While in his formative years, he played for AC Milan at youth level and on arrival in the UK he has been with Matlock assistant manager Dave Wild at Mossley and at Stockport Town.

Manager Paul Phillips said: “The kid’s just twenty with the world at his feet, he’s someone that will excite the crowd, offering us a different dimension with the way he can go past players.

"He’s the type of lad who can do what he wants, he’ll bring us goals, he’ll offer lightning pace which is something I feel we’ve been missing and there’s also adaptability for he can play as a number seven, nine, 10 or 11. We’re delighted to have him on board and I’m sure our fans will like what they see.”
