Lee loaned to Daggers

West Ham United midfielder Oliver Lee is set for his senior bow after being loaned to Dagenham and Redbridge.

The 19-year-old will join the League One side for a month of their survival fight, with the Daggers sitting just a point and a place above the relegation zone. Lee has established himself again in the Hammers reserve team this season, including Wednesday's 4-2 win at Blackpool, having suffered a bout of glandular fever and a leg injury in 2009/10.

A promising player, Lee recovered enough to earn a new contract last June and will be keen to impress in his stay at Victoria Road. Lee has already played there this season, getting 45 minutes as the Hammers won 3-2 in a friendly last October. The Academy product could make his Daggers debut in Saturday's crunch visit of Sheffield Wednesday.

Lee, son of former Hammers midfielder Rob, becomes the fourth player out on loan - with Kieron Dyer and Jordan Spence at Championship sides Ipswich Town and Bristol City respectively, while Frank Nouble is with League One team Charlton Athletic.
