Young forward Ruel Sotiriou has secured a temporary move away from Leyton Orient having joined Bishop’s Stortford on loan.

Sotiriou will spend the next month on loan with the Bostik Premier Division side, who currently sit in 18th place with five points from their first seven games.

The 18-year-old forward hasn’t featured for the O’s this season despite penning his first professional contract at Brisbane Road in the summer, keeping him in East London for the next two years.

Since making his debut for Orient against Dagenham and Redbridge in the FA Cup last October, Sotiriou has made six appearances in all competitions for Justin Edinburgh’s side, all of which coming as a substitute.

The 18-year-old’s temporary switch to Bishop’s Stortford will be the third loan move of his career, after he spent time on loan with Leatherhead and Heybridge Swifts last season.
