Welling United are delighted to confirm the loan signings of Daniel Quick and Jayden Davis from Eastbourne Borough.
22-year-old central defender Quick came through the academy at Crystal Palace where he was a key part of the Eagles’ U21s side, including an appearance in the EFL Trophy against Portsmouth at Fratton Park.
He enjoyed a loan spell with Dorking Wanderers in the National League during the 2022/23 campaign, which was followed by a temporary stint with Billericay Town.
Quick was snapped up by Eastbourne permanently in the summer of 2023 and has made 55 appearances for the East Sussex side.
He is joined by teammate Davis, who began his career at Millwall as a youngster, spending time on loan with King’s Lynne Town in 2021.
The winger joined Crawley Town in 2022 and made 10 senior appearances in his first season with the Reds, scoring once in an EFL Trophy victory over Aston Villa U21s, while also taking in a loan spell with Lewes.
Last season saw Davis head out to Farnborough on loan, before switching to Braintree Town where he played an important role in a successful play-off campaign, making 28 appearances and scoring four times for the Iron, including a strike in their semi-final victory over Chelmsford City, as they won promotion to the National League.
His eye-catching 2023/24 campaign prompted Eastbourne to bring him to East Sussex last summer, featuring 21 times this season, scoring twice.
The Eastbourne pair now join the Wings on loan deals until the end of the season as Rod Stringer continues to strengthen his squad for the remainder of the campaign.
