Defender Daniel Leadbitter has today signed a contract extension with the club.
Daniel missed almost the entire second half of the 2017/18 season through injury and will now be hoping to complete a more extensive campaign personally after committing his future to the club.
Since intially joining the club four years ago, Daniel has made 118 appearances for the club and has been a part of back to back promotions from the Conference up the League One.
Here's what Daniel had to say just moments after penning his new deal.
"My time here has made up the biggest part of my career and I've got some really great memories here, even besides the obvious ones.I'm going to be ready for the first game of preseason providing all goes well with my rehab but I'm very confident I'll be ready. I can't wait because it's hard watching from the sidelines, I hate watching but I'll turn up and support the lads every Saturday but that's not what I'm here to do so I look forward to being more involved next year."
The gaffer shared his defender's delight at the contract extension, something which Darrell was keen to express.
“I am extremely pleased that Daniel has agreed to extend his contract with the club and look forward to working with him again next season. He has been a valued member of the squad for four years now and has made over 100 appearances for us during that time. He was troubled by injury last season, but has undergone an operation to correct the hamstring problems he experienced and will be ready to join us for pre-season training.”
