Sayer joined Colchester's academy at under-14 level and made his professional debut for the club in 2020, at the age of 17.
He came on as a second-half substitute for Miles Welch-Hayes in the U's EFL Trophy group game against West Ham United under-21s.
Sayer signed his first professional contract with Colchester in January 2021 and made his EFL debut the following month, coming on as a late substitute for Aramide Oteh in the U's defeat to Exeter City.
But Sayer was released at the end of the 2022-23 season, after six and a half years with the club.
