Cambridge United captain Michael Morrison has signed a new one-year contract following the club's relegation to League Two.

The 37-year-old centre-back returned in January 2023 for a second spell with his boyhood club.

Morrison has made 228 appearances for the U's since his debut in 2005.

He played for Leicester City, Sheffield Wednesday, Charlton Athletic, Birmingham City and Reading between his two spells at Abbey Stadium.

"I love playing and I love playing for Cambridge. I feel good and feel like I can keep putting in good performances on the pitch," Morrison said.

Cambridge head coach Neil Harris said Morrison will be "an integral part" of the squad rebuild in the fourth tier.
