Ebbsfleet United manager Daryl McMahon has signed a new five-year contract after leading the club to promotion from National League South.

McMahon, who spent two seasons with the Fleet as a midfielder, was appointed as manager in April 2015.

The 33-year-old led the club to two successive promotion finals, winning promotion at the second attempt with a 2-1 victory over Chelmsford in May.

"It's a great gesture from the owner," he told BBC Radio Kent.

"It shows great commitment to me, and I'm looking forward to rewarding that commitment he's shown me by taking the club forward."
