Carlisle United have signed midfielder Kadeem Harris on a short-term deal until January.

The 31-year-old has been without a club since leaving Turkish club Sanliurfaspor earlier this year.

"He brings experience and quality to the group, giving us that pace and explosive power we’re after, capable of hurting teams," Carlisle boss Mike Williamson told the club website., external

Harris started his career at Wycombe before moving to Cardiff City in 2012.

Following loan spells at Brentford and Barnsley, Harris signed for Sheffield Wednesday in 2019 before moving to Metalist Kharkiv two years later.

However, his time with the Ukrainian outfit was cut short following Russia's invasion in early 2022.

Harris is eligible to feature for Carlisle in their League Two game with Salford City on Saturday.
