Iain Dowie said about his first signing, “Clint is a physical player who has a sweet left foot and is also technically very good. He can pass the ball out of defence, which is what I want, and is a threat in both penalty boxes. He is a leader and a winner and I like his desire and drive. Clint was talked about as a future Premiership centre-half at one stage and I want to help him get back on
that road again.”
