Jack Connors: Dagenham defender signs new contract

Dagenham & Redbridge defender Jack Connors has signed a new three-year contract with the League Two club.

The 19-year-old left-back signed a one-year deal with the Daggers this summer, but has impressed manager Wayne Burnett in his nine appearances this season.

"I'm delighted Jack has signed a new contract," Burnett told the club's official website.

"It's now about Jack continuing his development and progression. I think we have a decent player on our hands."

Connors began his career at Premier League side Fulham before joining the Daggers' youth system.

"Being in the academy massively helped me become the player I am today," he said.

"I've always believed in my ability, I always believed I was good enough to play and I feel I took my opportunity."
