The former Southend United midfielder has found his first-team opportunities limited so far this season, prompting Rooks` manager Darren Freeman to loan the player to our Sussex neighbours.

Freeman told https://www.lewesfc.com: "It's important players have game time and I felt Nico would benefit from regular starts at East Grinstead.

"There's no doubt there's a quality player in there, but I think Nico has found the adjustment from full-time to part-time football tough, and he needs to get some minutes under his belt".
