Dagenham pair Medy Elito and Matt Saunders have both signed new deals which keep them at the League Two club until 2015.

Winger Elito, 22, joined the Daggers in the summer of 2011 following a successful loan spell, while midfielder Saunders, 23, penned an 18-month agreement in February 2012, although his contribution was cut short by an ankle injury last term. Boss John Still told the club's official website: "Medy is a player we know very well. I think his performances this season have been very consistent and I am hoping to see more of the same. He has terrific ability and at his age we think we can improve him and make him a better player. "Matt had a great grounding as a youngster at Fulham. Unfortunately last year he picked up a bad injury and missed a lot of football. "He is back now and playing consistently and he is another one that we feel is at a good age and we feel he can get even better. We hope he carries on improving and becomes another top player." The new contracts come after team-mates Jake Reed and Louis Dennis both also extended their stays at Victoria Road last week.
