CHARLIE Kelman has joined Leyton Orient on a season long loan from Queens Park Rangers.
The 20-year-old striker came through the youth ranks at Southend United before scoring eight goals in 35 appearances for the first team.
Kelman left the Shrimpers for QPR in 2020 but headed out on loan to Gillingham last season.
And he is now looking forward to teaming up with the O’s.
He told the club’s website: "At the start of the window the interest was there.
"QPR wanted to make sure that it was the right loan for me, and this certainly feels like it is."
“I've got a point to prove.
"I like to do the ugly side of the game, be aggressive, run defenders, hassle and get the ball back.
“Obviously I like to score goals, but I'll do anything I have to do for the team."
"The conversations I had with the gaffer were very positive.
“Everyone at the club has aspirations for promotion this year.
“It's an exciting project to be a part of."
