Richard Keogh initially joined United in November 2007, on loan from Bristol City.
He returned to Bristol after a six week stay, and went out to Cheltenham for two months as talks continued to bring him to Brunton Park on a permanent deal.
The clubs finally agreed the move in August 2008, and Keogh joined the Cumbrians on a two year contract.
He started his career as a trainee with Stoke before signing for Bristol City in 2005.
Richard has International experience playing and captaining the Republic of Ireland U21s.
Although his preferred position is as a centre back he can slot in anywhere along the defensive line, where his strength and assurance has already shown to be a big asset to the side.
Under contract until the summer of 2010.
