MILLERS SNAP UP DAWSON

- By Sheridan Robins

ROTHERHAM United have signed 21-year-old midfielder Chris Dawson on a contract until the end of the 2016-17 season.

The Millers swooped for the Wales U21 internatio­nal following his release from his contract at Leeds United and he will rejoin Neil Redfearn at the New York Stadium.

The Dewsbury-born operator admits he is excited by the tests that he will face in South Yorkshire and is keen to establish his name in the profession­al game during his time with the Millers.

“I’m really happy and looking forward to a new challenge and a fresh start and hopefully I can kick my career off here,” Dawson explained. “It’s an important year and a half in my career and its key to how I kick on.”
