Glentoran have announced the transfer deadline day signing of forward Junior Ogedi-Uzokwe.
The 28-year-old was a free agent after leaving League of Ireland club Bohemians earlier this month.
Ogedi-Uzokwe's career has seen him play for several clubs including Enfield, Lewes, Turk Ocagi Limasol, Colchester, Bromley, Sligo Rovers, Dundalk and Derry City.

The striker lifted the Cypriot Cup with Turk Ocagi in 2017, and won the League of Ireland's Golden Boot two years during a loan season with Derry City.
Glentoran manager Rodney McAree told Glens TV: "Junior was on our radar for quite a while. We have watched him and talked about him during my time here, and I believe Mick (McDermott) and Windy (Paul Millar) had been watching him before that.
"We realised he was a free agent so it was relatively straight forward. He is a powerful boy, very quick and has an eye for goal. And he is technically very good, so we were keen to get him in.

"He hasn't played a game for a few months, so we don't want to rush him. But the flip side is we're in the tail end of our season so we want him in as soon as we can.
"We will monitor him in training and take advice from our physios."
Meanwhile, Ogedi-Uzokwe - who was at the Oval for Monday night's 2-0 win over Crusaders - admits it "made sense" to join the Glens.
He said: "Recently I got a shout from Paul (Millar) and he old me the club's vision and the ambition.
"So I thought it made sense for me to come here.
"I was at the game on Monday night and I thought it was really good. Especially first half I thought we controlled the game well.
"We got the goals and it was good from there."
He added: "The whole vision of Glentoran, and after chatting to Paul it made sense to me.
"I want to win silverware, and at 28 I still feel quite young and feel I have a lot to offer. I just need to keep going.
"I have some work to do to get match fit, but hopefully I get some game time and then hit the ground running."
