Dagenham & Redbridge FC have today completed the emergency loan signing of QPR striker Troy Hewitt.

Signed from Harrow Borough in February, Hewitt has made just one appearance for Rangers to date, at home to Rochdale in the Carling Cup.

Troy, 21 was snapped up by Rangers after a prolific season for Harrow Borough where he scored 20 goals in just 30 appearances, three of which came in a FA Cup 4th Qualifying round match against Eastbourne Borough. This performance led to him being nominated for the 'E.on Player Of The Round'.

Daggers manager John Still is delighted to have brought Troy on loan to the club.

"He's a young boy who we looked at when he was at Harrow Borough. He went to Queens Park Rangers but we've kept our eye on the situation.

"He's a local boy from Ilford which helps. We always felt he was a player who might go on to progress from non-league football. As I say unfortunately he went to QPR but the chance has now come up to take him for a month and we think it's a good move for both parties."

Troy has been given squad number 38 and is eligible for Satruday's match with Crewe Alexandra.
