The 22-year-old thanked everyone at the club following his departure.

“I’d like to say a massive thank you to all in the organisation for the help & support I’ve received during my seven years at the club from the junior academy all the way through.

“It’s been one hell of a journey and one I’ll look back on fondly. I’ve learnt an awful lot from the world class players we have here & for that I’ll always be grateful.”
