Daniel Takes Pay Cut<\/h3>\n

Daniel has signed a new one-year deal with the League One side. Having joined the Brewers 18-months ago from Peterborough United, the left-back has made 49 appearances for the Brewers.<\/p>\n

Not only has the 32-year-old penned a new deal, but he has agreed to take a pay cut to help the club as they fight the financial battles caused as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n

Daniel’s extension follows the news that Steven Lawless<\/a> and Charles Vernam<\/a> have joined Jake Buxton’s squad ahead of next season.<\/p>\n

What Was Said<\/h3>\n

Speaking to the clubs’ official website, he said<\/a>: “I am buzzing to be staying at the club and cannot wait for the football to get back started.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a tough number of months without football, but I\u2019m really excited to get back playing and working under the new manager.”<\/p>\n

Manager Jake Buxton, who replaced Nigel Clough after he left during lockdown, added: \u201cWe\u2019re happy that Colin has signed a new deal and I think it shows to everyone that a lot of players want to stay and play their football here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cHis Football League experience speaks for itself and since arriving, his availability for selection has been brilliant, chipping in with a number of assists.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cHe\u2019s another player that we can utilise in a number of positions and I back myself to get the best out of him. It\u2019s great to have him back!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Daniel Career<\/h3>\n

Colin Daniel began his career at Crewe Alexandra where he made 17 appearances before joining Macclesfield Town. During his time with the Silkmen, Daniel made just under 150 appearances.<\/p>\n

He dropped down a division to join Mansfield Town, where he won promotion from the Conference in his first season. Eight goals in 75 appearances from two seasons followed before he joined Port Vale.<\/p>\n

He spent two seasons at Port Vale before another two seasons with Blackpool. He then spent just six months with Posh before his move to the Brewers.<\/p>\n
