Leyton Orient are set to sign former Arsenal and Brentford defender Fin Stevens. The 23-year-old will undergo a medical ahead of a permanent move from German side St Pauli.

What's the background?

Stevens rose through the ranks at Arsenal before a spell at non-league Worthing, where he attracted the attention of Brentford.

Why does it matter for Leyton Orient?

The signing of Stevens is a boost to Leyton Orient's League One campaign, which has seen the club finish 17th in the table with 51 points from 43 games, and a recent form of DLLDD. Their last result was a 2-2 draw against Burton Albion on 2026-05-02.

What's the transfer situation?

Stevens is believed to have turned down offers from other clubs in League One and Germany to join Orient. The full-back has played in League One previously for Oxford United, enjoying an impressive loan spell at the club in the 2023/24 campaign where he helped them to win promotion to the Championship.
