Speaking on the signing, Sussex Head Coach, Paul Farbrace: “I’m delighted that Danny has agreed to join us here at Hove, he is someone I’ve followed for a while and his all-round ability with bat and ball makes him a fantastic addition to our team. 

“He comes from a club and environment at Old Trafford that expects to win, and I want him to bring that winning attitude with him.”

On his move to the South coast, Danny Lamb added: “I’m extremely excited for the opportunity. A brilliant new challenge and one which I feel has come at the right stage in my career.

I’ve always enjoyed playing against Sussex and at Hove. I like what Sussex are about and the vision for the future with Paul Farbrace at the helm of a young ambitious squad. I can’t wait to get going and I look forward to contributing to the team in all formats"
