Pelly Ruddock Mpanzu's the latest summer signing for Cambridge United.

The 31 year old midfielder's been at Luton Town for 11 years, during which time he became the first player to go from non-league to Premier League with the Hatters.

He's signed a two year deal to come to the Cledara Abbey Stadium and says, ""Cambridge called me about two weeks ago and came down to see me, told me about the project they are trying to build here and I wanted to make sure it was the right move for my career.

"I am ready to get going. It's new to me - a different feeling, different people, different views and a different opportunity. I am glad I am here at Cambridge and I can't wait to play my football here."
