DAGENHAM & boss has received a blow after defender Josh Staunton turned down a new deal with the club.

Staunton joined the Daggers last summer after he was released by Charlton Athletic despite being a key part of the Addicks’ U21 side.

He initially in midfield for Dagenham but soon moved into his favoured centre-back position and also featured at right-back.

A common name in our Team of the Day last season, Staunton made 39 appearances for the Daggers and it was hoped he would remain at Victoria Road after forming a strong partnership with skipper Scott Doe at the heart of the defence.

However, the 21-year-old sees his future elsewhere and he decided to reject the offer of a new deal.

Boss Still has Doe, Luke Pennell and Craig Robson to call on at centre-back and he has already signed former Plymouth, Yeovil, Stevenage and man Bondz N’Gala this summer.

A Daggers statement read: “Josh Staunton has decided to turn down the offer the club made to him of a new contract and will begin looking for a new club.

FC would like to thank Josh for his services while at the club and we wish him all the best for the future.”
