Efe Echanomi (born September 27, 1986 in England) is a football (soccer) striker and a former Leyton Orient F.C. player in the English third division, Football League One. Echanomi signed for Orient, who are his first professional club, in late 2004 and has since scored 8 league goals in 34 appearances. Echanomi primarily acts as a "super sub" for Orient, with 30 of his appearances being as a substitute. He is renowned for celebrating his goals with multiple somersaults.
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.
Efe now has his very own chant, to the sound of The Piranhas and their hit "Tom Hark" - "Do,Do,Do,Do.....Echanomi" which was first prominent in the away fixture with Southend United. On 7th may 2008 he was given he contract release from the club
