Official : Former Chelsea Defender Joins The Eagles

Bedford Town have officially announced the signing of the promising Nigerian defender Melvin Adesida.

The 18-year-old joins The Eagles on dual registration terms with Vanarama National League North side Nuneaton Town.

Prior to moving to Nuneaton Town, Adesida played for the academy teams of Chelsea, Millwall and Reading, and has also spent time with Ilkeston.

All things being equal, the teenager might make his competitive debut in Saturday’s division one central tie at AFC Dunstable.

He is capable of playing as a central defender or right fullback.
