Glens boss Declan Devine told the club’s official website: “Its no secret we need a couple of keepers this summer and with Daniel we have a very good addition to the squad.

"He’s trained at the Oval and he’s been very impressive as we put him through his paces. He’s big, strong, confident, athletic and mobile and will be a very valuable addition to the squad.”
