"I spoke to him and I met him when he came to the stadium, I really liked him because he was refreshing in the fact that he actually asked me some questions instead of me doing all the talking." Warne told themillers.co.uk.

"He was at Wolves as a kid and the recruitment team brought him to my attention. I went and watched him in the Play-off final and although he lost, he looked competitive and athletic."

"He wanted to know where I saw him in my plans and I told him the truth, in that, if he comes back in pre-season and is the best centre-half then he'd play. It's as simple as that, I haven't got any favourites and I'd put anyone in who is performing."

"I got some good reports from different people about him and while he still has some improvements to make, it's our job to do that, I think his best years are still probably in front of him. With the help of Hammy  and Rich and having good players around him, I think he'll come on another level. Hopefully in a year's time we'll be talking about the fact that he's hard to keep hold of."

"He'll come in pre-season have a really good pre-season and work hard and hopefully go on to have a great career for us."
