Career
[edit]Echanomi began his career playing for Leyton Orient, who were his first professional club, in late 2004 and had scored eight league goals in 34 appearances.
Echanomi spent 15 months injured due to having broken his leg in a freak accident before a home game against Chester City in December 2005. Warming up with some other players he caught his studs in the turn and suffered a horrendous injury. He made his long-awaited comeback as a substitute against Doncaster Rovers in April 2007.
He signed for Tiptree United on 29 August 2008 but left the club in November to sign for Grays Athletic on non-contract terms.[1]
He joined Waltham Forest during mid-December 2011.[2]
In 2015, Echanomi played in a charity match, appearing as part of Leyton Orient legends XI against Men United XI.[3]
