Rico Quitongo

Rico, is the son of former Dumbarton player and Hearts star Jose Quitongo and the brother of Jai Quitongo, has signed on for another year at the Rock.

His career began at Hamilton Accies under 17s in 2016, and he advanced to the under 20s a year later. A loan period at Boness United followed.

In January 2018 he left Hamilton to join Hearts under 20s, and he was released in July 2019.

In his first season he soon became a Sons fans favourite, so much so that he was voted Sonstrust young player of the year.

Manager Jim Duffy said: "Rico was a very worthy winner of the award and we are delighted he sees his future with us.

"He is of course from a strong footballing family and that's been easy to see with his performances in a Dumbarton shirt to date.

"We're hopeful that there's even more to come from him, and I know he'll continue to show the same fantastic attitude he's displayed since day one."
