Cambridge United: Will Norris signs three-year deal at League Two club

Will Norris made 15 appearances to help Cambridge United win promotion back to the Football League in 2014

Cambridge United goalkeeper Will Norris has signed a new three-year contract with the League Two club.

The 22-year-old joined Cambridge from Royston Town in 2012 and spent the first half of last campaign on loan at National League side Braintree Town.

But he was brought back from his season-long loan early in January and played 21 times for Shaun Derry's U's.

"Will fully deserves a new contract. It's good reward for his performances," said chief executive Jez George.

He continued to BBC Radio Cambridgeshire: "I think Will fully justified the faith Shaun had in recalling him almost as soon as he can after becoming the manager and installing him as first-choice.

"Will's performances just underlined what we thought of him. He's a young goalkeeper with great potential, he's a fantastic lad and works really hard at his game.

"That mixture of hard work, dedication and talent usually means success and we're really hopeful he'll have a long and successful career."
