League Two side Dagenham & Redbridge have signed defender Damian Batt on a two-year deal.

The 29-year-old spent last season at Conference South side Eastleigh following a four-year stint at Oxford United, where he made 177 appearances.

Batt had a brief spell with the Daggers in 2004 and has previously worked with boss Wayne Burnett at Fisher Athletic.

"Damian is a player that I've known for a very long time," Burnett told

"He's a good athlete, has a good footballing brain and I think it's a major coup for us getting him.

"It's another player that will bring in experience."
