Alfie Gilchrist has joined Sky Bet League One team Leyton Orient on a season-long loan.

The defender makes the move to The O’s ahead of their fixture against Sheffield Wednesday at the BetWright Stadium this Saturday.

22-year-old Gilchrist - who joined Albion last summer from Chelsea and played 13 league games for the Baggies during the 2025/26 campaign - heads to London to continue his development under the guidance of Orient boss Richie Wellens.

Good luck this season, Alfie!
