About James:
The Cambridge United graduate joined the Bannsiders in the 2026 January transfer window. Adaptable at playing across the front line, Akintunde first crossed the Irish Sea to work under Ruaidhri Higgins at Derry City. He also counts Bohemians and Finnish side Haka as his previous clubs. He suffered a cruel ankle injury in March 2026, which is expected to keep him sidelined for a considerable period of time.
