Sutton United Football Club are delighted to confirm the signing of Osman Foyo, who rejoins the club on loan until the end of the season.
The forward has unfinished business to attend to, having briefly spent time at the VBS Community Stadium in November, and will be a welcome addition to Chris Agutter’s frontline as they look to maintain their recent streak of good form.
Born in Netherlands, Foyo moved to England shortly before his fifth birthday and joined Chelsea at the age of 12 following a six-week trial, remaining with the Blues for three years before moving to Norwich City, where he secured a scholarship in July 2021.
A brief work experience loan to East Anglian rivals Ipswich Town allowed him to gain experience following a brief stint with the Canaries, and he soon made the move permanent, remaining with the Tractor Boys until the start of 2025.
Standing at 6″4, his time in Suffolk saw him participate in pre-season with the club’s first team as well as scoring five goals in nine games before embarking on loans within non-league, gaining experience of regular senior football at Torquay United, Welling United and Chelmsford City, the latter proving to be his most successful stint, scoring 12 times in 21 appearances.
His form with the Clarets saw him attract interest from EFL clubs, and he opted to depart Ipswich permanently in January 2025 in order to join AFC Wimbledon, making his debut as a substitute in a 3-0 win over Crewe Alexandra which saw him mark a significant jump from the sixth tier to the fourth tier in the blink of an eye.
Foyo ended the campaign six appearances to his name for the Dons, before embarking on a fourth loan spell of his career, making the switch across South London to join Sutton initially until the new year.
He subsequently produced two extremely promising performances for Agutter’s side, making a cameo in the 2-0 win over FC Halifax Town before being rewarded with his first start against Truro City, putting in a monstrous display up top as the U’s sealed a memorable 3-2 victory in Cornwall, and his encouraging start to life at Sutton was only ended prematurely for non-footballing reasons.
After completing his return to Sutton, Foyo said:
“It feels good, you know. Feels like home.
I’m still keeping in contact with a few of the boys and stuff, always checking in with the gaffer and that, so it’s always good to be back.”
Welcome to Sutton, Osman!
