On 22 January 2026, Akhamrich joined EFL League Two club Bristol Rovers on loan for the rest of the season.[7][8] Having already made two substitute appearances, he made his full debut on 31 January, scoring his side's first two goals in a 3–0 relegation six-pointer victory over Newport County, the first of these strikes being nominated for League Two Goal of the Month.[9][10] His impressive form continued, seeing him named as the club's Player of the Month for February.[11]
Having scored six goals in 19 appearances for Bristol Rovers in League Two, he joined EFL League One club Leyton Orient on a season-long loan deal in July 2026.[12] He scored his first goal for Orient on 22 August 2026, in a 2-0 away league win against Wigan Athletic.[13]
