Crawley Town striker Charles Ademeno says he is concentrating on playing for the club after his deadline day move to Torquay United fell through.

The 21-year-old, who has scored eight goals this season, saw the deal collapse because the paperwork did not go through in time.

He told BBC Sussex: "As a player you want to play at the highest level.

"It didn't go through, that's done and dusted. I just want to play the next game for Crawley Town to be honest."

Ademeno is hoping another chance to move into the Football League will come.

He said: "If I keep playing the way I've been playing over the last couple of months and if I keep banging goals in, I hope the door will open for me. If it comes and if it's the right move for me, hopefully I'll take it."

The summer signing from Southend United, who scored a hat-trick within six minutes at Grays in December, says he is ignoring the gossip surrounding him.

He said: "I don't really listen to it, I let the club and my agent deal with all of that so I can stay focussed on my football and that's the best way to do it."
