The 20-year-old joins the Nuts & Bolts from Vanarama National League South side Chippenham Town.

He made his Chippenham debut in the 2-2 draw at Hardenhuish Park against neighbours Bath City on Boxing Day 2018, having signed just before the deadline on Christmas Eve.

A versatile right-sided defender who can also play centre-half, Ossai captained both the under-16s and the under-18s at Premier League Crystal Palace.

He signed a scholarship in the summer of 2016 after impressing in his first few games at academy level in 2015/16.

After being released by Palace, Ossai joined then-Isthmian League side Thamesmead Town but after they pulled out of the league earlier this season, he signed for Southern Counties East League Division One outfit Welling Town.

He made the National League South`s team of the week in September but has only made three appearances with one goal this season to add to the 21 games and one goal in 2018/19.
