Warren O’Hora is thrilled to have completed a permanent switch to MK Dons believing it is the best place to continue his development.

The 21-year-old centre-back joined the League One side on loan from Brighton last summer and an impressive start to life with Russell Martin’s side has now earned him a deal to stay at Stadium MK.

0’Hora, who has represented the Republic of Ireland at Under-17 and Under-19 level, told mkdons.com : “I’m over the moon.

“I’ve enjoyed my time with the club ever since I arrived back in pre-season, so I’m happy to be here on a permanent basis.

“I’m certainly enjoying my football here and hopefully that’s showing on the pitch. Obviously now I want to get back on the pitch after my little injury setback.

“Every footballer wants to keep improving and developing, and I think MK Dons is the best place for me to do that. It’s a big ambition of mine to keep moving forward and I know I can do that with this club – I’m really excited for the future.”
