Twine scored 14 goals and provided nine assists for the Robins and Newport where he spent a successful loan spell, last season.

“What’s even more exciting is that we were also his first-choice option – he completely buys into what we want to do here at MK Dons and he is eager to work and develop under our management team.”
Twine told iFollow MK Dons: “There were a few clubs interested but after I spoke to the gaffer (Russell Martin), he sold it to me. I wanted to come here and play football the way we do, and I want to bring lots of goals and assists.”
