Warren O'Hora has signed for MK Dons on a permanent basis after spending the first half of the season on loan at the club from Brighton.

O'Hora has already made 17 appearances at centre half for the Dons so far this campaign and will hope to make many more in the action packed months ahead.

Having moved from Bohs in 2018, O'Hora is now excited to move to what he describes as "the best place for me".

“I’m over the moon,” O’Hora told mkdons.com. “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.”

His new manager Russell Martin was equally delighted to secure his new signing.

“It’s brilliant news for the Football Club – in both the short-term and the long-term.

“He’s been one of our best players this season and certainly earned this contract. The challenge for him now is to establish himself as a top player at this level.

“He has also real leadership qualities which, now he’s our player, we hope to see come through even more too.”
