Adrian Patulea is a free agent after agreeing to end his contract with Lyton Orient 'by Mutual consent'. Barnet are said to be interested although he is also well known in the Blue Square Premier after a loan spell at Hayes & Yeading FC
Poor Adi nicknamed the Count due to his predatory instints in Impdom never got a chance with just 4 league starts for Orient. Of 26 bit part appearences, 19 were from the bench as Adrian bagged just the one League and one Cup goal for the O's.
The 26-year-old hitman is in his prime and scored 3 goals in 8 BSP games for Hayes this season, suggesting he still has the knack. Adrian is said to be mulling over a few options including a return to the East Midlands should a return to the Football league not materialise.
