Colchester United have signed up forward Tarryn Allarakhia to join their U23s squad for the coming season.
The livewire attacker makes the step up from Maldon & Tiptree, for whom he has impressed over the last eighteen months.
Prior to Maldon, Tarryn played for Aveley and represented Essex at age groups and was current U's assistant coach Steve Ball's first signing when in charge of the Jammers.
Tarryn has signed a one year development contract to join the U23s and he scored in their friendly against Concord Rangers at the weekend.
