Northampton Town have signed former Colchester United midfielder Cameron McGeehan on a two-year contract.

The 29-year-old had been offered a new deal by Colchester after scoring 10 goals in 39 appearances last season.

He won promotion from League One with Barnsley in 2019 before a spell in Belgian football at KV Oostende.

McGeehan, who won an international cap for Northern Ireland against San Marino last year, is Northampton's fourth g of the week.

Striker James Wilson and goalkeeper Nik Tzanev ed on one-year deals and Salford forward Callum Morton arrived on a season-long loan.

"Cam is an attacking midfielder who is very competitive, he sets the tempo high and he plays with a lot of energy and power. He works well both on and off the ball and we think he is a really good fit for us," said Northampton boss Jon Brady.

"We believe Cam can be a good g for us, he played a lot of football last season and he is eager to get started with us."

Northampton will start the new League One season with a trip to Bristol Rovers on 10 August after finishing 10th in 2023-24.
