Jesurun is a winger who arrived from Chesterfield in August 2023, penning a two-year deal at the Crown Oil Arena.
The 22-year-old was born in Lagos, Nigeria, but moved to Italy as a youngster, where he was scouted by footballing giants AC Milan at the age of seven.
His family relocated to England when he was 15-years-old and he was soon spotted by Everton, spending time on trial with The Toffees.
Spells in non-league at Stockport Town and Mossley followed, before moving to Matlock Town.
Impressive form alerted interest from Chesterfield, where Uchegbulam made 37 appearances last term, as well as appearing in their opening day win over Dorking Wanderers this season.
