Career

Born in Colchester, Armin joined the Ipswich Town academy as an Under-8 in 2012. He signed a two-year professional contract in July 2021.

Armin made his senior debut for Ipswich Town on 14 September 2021 in a 2-1 home defeat to West Ham United Under-21s in the EFL Trophy group stage.

On 3 August 2022, he joined National League South club Braintree Town on loan for the first half of the 2022–23 season. [3] He made his debut for Braintree Town on 6 August 2022, coming on as a substitute in a 2-1 away league defeat at Dulwich Hamlet. That was his only appearance for Braintree Town, and he soon returned to parent club Ipswich Town.

Armin made his first appearance for Ipswich Town against senior opposition on 18 October 2022, coming on as an 87th-minute substitute for Edwin Agbaje in a 1–0 away defeat at Cambridge United in the EFL Trophy group stage. [4] The East Anglian Daily Times reported that "within seconds he had produced a perfectly-timed slide tackle to prevent a dangerous Cambridge counter-attack". [5]

Armin made a total of 4 first team appearances for Ipswich Town, before being released at the end of the 2022-23 season. After unsuccessful trials at professional clubs West Bromwich Albion and Brentford, Armin signed for Southern Premier Central side Leiston on 11 September 2023.

Despite playing as a defender during his time at Ipswich Town, Armin played predominantly as a midfielder during his first season at Leiston, scoring 2 goals in 33 league appearances.

Style of play

Armin's agency describes him as a left-sided "marauding centre-half with an excellent range of both short and long passing with the ability to shift and unlock teams". [2]
