Striker Barry Corr joins Cambridge United

League Two side Cambridge United have completed the signing of centre-forward Barry Corr.

The 30-year-old has joined the U's following a five-year stint with Southend United, for whom he scored over 50 goals.

After his recent release from Roots Hall, the striker has now agreed a two-year contract at the Abbey Stadium.

"Barry is another fantastic coup for the club and signals the intent of where we want to take Cambridge United going forward," manager Richard Money told the club's official website.

"We hope that our supporters are as excited about his arrival at the Abbey Stadium as we are, because he has the potential to be a superb player for the club."

Corr scored the only goal of the game when Southend played Cambridge on Boxing Day last season.
