He later moved to Grays Athletic, before signing for Ebbsfleet United. He was released at the end of the 2007–08 and went to Sutton United.[4] After one season at Sutton, Eribenne moved back to the Midlands and signed for his local club Hinckley United.[5] After a season with Hinckley, Eribenne moved on to Ilkeston Town.
