Carey-Bertram moves to Cambridge

According to the Official Cambridge United website former Hereford striker Danny Carey-Bertram has signed for Cambridge United on a free transfer.

The 21-year-old joined Hereford from West Brom in August 2003 and scored nine goals in the Conference last season for the Bulls, who won promotion to the Football League last month via the play-offs.

In his three seasons at Edgar Street, Carey-Bertram scored 17 times in 32 starts and 38 substitute appearances, but he decided to leave in search of more first team football.

A number of Conference clubs were interested in signing the pacy striker but he opted for Cambridge United and signed after passing a medical.

"We've seen good performances from him, and he's a good addition to the squad," said manager Rob Newman.

"He's got electric pace, he's an exciting player, and he was unlucky not to play more games for Hereford last year, so we're delighted to bring him in.

"He has a proven goalscoring record in the Conference and just lacked games at Hereford, so hopefully he can come to us and give us the pace we need in the Conference. If we play to his strengths then he will make us much stronger."


Carey-Bertram joins another former Hereford United player, Jon Brady, at the club.
