Lobjoit offered deal with O's

Leyton Orient have offered a one-year contract to rookie forward Billy Lobjoit, who has showed sterling form for their youth team this term.

The 18-year-old has scored 13 goals in 19 youth-team matches this season and had a successful spell on loan with non-league Boreham Wood. Youth boss Andy Edwards told the club's official website: "This is an excellent opportunity for Billy. "He is a talented young player who has been in our system for a number of years and we have high hopes for him. "He deserves his chance and now it is down to him to push on to the next level and try to break into the first team."
