Cambridge United are pleased to announce the signing of Gabriel Breeze for an undisclosed fee…
The 22-year-old goalkeeper joins from Carlisle United on a three-year contract.
Breeze has made 84 appearances for the Cumbrians – his hometown club – across the past three seasons, in both the EFL and National League. He now arrives at the Cledara Abbey Stadium on a three-year deal, subject to EFL and FA approval.
Gabriel said, "When I spoke to the gaffer and everyone at the club, they sold it in a really good way. Cambridge United is going in the right direction and has a lot of ambition - it's the perfect move for me.
“It's nice to feel wanted, and I can't wait to get started, work hard, and reward the club for bringing me in."
Neil Harris added, “We are delighted to welcome Gabriel to the football club. He's a player we've tracked for a while now - a very young goalkeeper who already possesses valuable experience, not only in the National League last year, but also in League Two the season before.
“For a player so young to already have that level of experience shows the massive potential for further development in him, both as a lad and as a goalkeeper.
“We feel that over a longer-term contract, he'll gain great experience and the opportunity to grow, but we also know he has the capability to step in and play straight away.
“We look forward to helping him on his pathway to reaching the higher levels of the football pyramid."
Breeze signs ahead of this weekend’s Sky Bet League One opener against Wigan Athletic and will wear the number 13 shirt for the club.
