Kaedyn Kamara joins on loan

Cork City FC are pleased to announce the signing of Kaedyn Kamara, on loan from Preston North End until the end of the season.

The 19-year-old midfielder has featured as a playing substitute for Preston in their pre-season fixtures against Liverpool and Getafe, and he told CorkCityFC.ie that he was pleased to be on Leeside: “It’s very good to get it done. I’m buzzing to be here, and get started.”

“I saw my teammate Kitt Nelson come here and do very well. I know a few other lads here, like Harry Nevin. I’ve heard a lot of good things about the city and the club. It’s a big club, so hopefully I can do well.”

Kamara joins Fiacre Kelleher, Rory Feely, Charlie Lutz and David Odumosu as recruits to Gerard Nash’s first team squad in this window, and the City boss welcomed his latest recruit, saying: “I am very pleased to get Kaedyn on board. He’s an energetic midfielder with a great attitude and a really high workrate. When we spoke to him, he was really keen to come here and really excited about the opportunity. He’s been in and around the Preston first team for the last couple of years now, as well as having a couple of loan spells, and he was involved in their pre-season fixtures over the last few weeks, so he’s fit and raring to go.”
