Leyton Orient defender Phil Chinedu has agreed a new long-term contract at Brisbane Road.
The 19-year-old academy graduate signed professional terms in 2025 and also spent time on loan at Wealdstone and Barnet.
He helped the Bees finish eighth in League Two last season following promotion from the National League, making 17 appearances and scoring twice.
"This feels amazing and I want to thank the club, the coaching staff and everyone for trusting me," Chinedu said.
"Since I signed my first contract, I have played as many senior games as I can to try and show the club what I can do and that they can trust me. Now I just want to kick on.
"My time at Barnet was really enjoyable. I loved it. I scored a few goals and I learned a lot about the men's game. I am feeling confident and that I am ready to try and make an impact on the squad."
