Chesterfield have announced the signing of Matt Dibley-Dias from Premier League side Fulham.
He joins the Derbyshire club on a season-long loan.
The 21-year-old New Zealander joined the Craven Cottage outfit at the age of 14. He was named Academy Player of the Year in 2022/23 and was included in the first-team matchday squad on several occasions. Last season, he spent the campaign on loan at Northampton Town.
Speaking to chesterfield-fc.co.uk, Dibley-Dias said: “It feels good. I’m happy we got it done quite early and I can get used to the team and crack on and have a good pre-season. I’m excited.
“I know quite a few of the boys that were here last season like Michael (Olakigbe), Devan (Tanton) and Harvey (Araujo). They’ve all had good things to say and just rave about the place.”
