TRANSFER: Striker leaves to join Eastleigh

Carlisle United Football Club can confirm that striker Tristan Abrahams has today moved to National League side Eastleigh on a free transfer.

Abrahams, 23, joined the Blues on a two-year deal in June 2021 and scored four goals in his 27 appearances.

He spent the second half of his first season on-loan at Grimsby, where he helped the club to a National League play-off final triumph.

London-born Abrahams started out as a youngster with Leyton Orient and signed his first professional deal with the O’s in November 2016.

A run of games for the youngster at the end of that season saw him score his first senior goals as he bagged twice in two consecutive outings against Luton and Hartlepool respectively.

He enjoyed a four-game loan spell with Cambridge City before making the switch to Norwich for an undisclosed fee in 2017. Loan spells with Orient, Exeter and Yeovil followed whilst with the Canaries, and he left Carrow Road to join Newport County on a two-year contract in the summer of 2019.

He bagged 18 goals in 74 appearances in all competitions at Rodney Parade and spent the second half of last season back where it all began, at the Breyer Group Stadium, playing in another 14 games for the Orient.
