“The challenge of competing for the shirt will drive me on. Alex [Smithies] is a great ‘keeper and I’m looking forward to working with him and the other ‘keepers,” added said.

“Alex has the shirt now but I want Matt to challenge him – and that is why we have signed him. Knowing him and his character, he won’t just be coming here to sit on the bench.

“We feel Matt will play at the highest level one day. We foresee a very bright future for him.”
