Carlisle United Football Club are delighted to announce the signing of Morgan Feeney on a two-year deal.
Feeney, 26, came through the ranks at Everton, before joining Tranmere Rovers for the second-half of the 2019/20 campaign.
In the summer of 2020, he joined Sunderland on a short-term basis and netted his first senior goal for the Black Cats on his debut in an 8-1 victory over Aston Villa in the EFL Trophy.
The centre-back initially joined the Cumbrians in January 2021 on a deal until the following summer, prior to penning a one-year extension which included a club option for a further year until the end of the 2022/23 season, which was ultimately activated.
After captaining the Blues to promotion in dramatic fashion in 2023 - beating Stockport County on penalties in the play-off final at Wembley, he then joined Shrewsbury Town where his contract expired this summer.
Head Coach, Mark Hughes said: "Bringing Morgan back is a move we’re extremely pleased with. He embodies all the characteristics you look for in a player - professionalism, drive, quality on the pitch, and a deep understanding of what it takes to succeed.
"Morgan’s familiarity with the club, its culture, and the expectations placed on players to perform will be invaluable as we continue to build for the season ahead. His experience and presence will add hugely to the leadership within the team, both on and off the field.
"I’m looking forward to working with him and I'm excited about what he will bring to the squad."
Head of Football Operations, Marc Tierney said: "We're thrilled to welcome back a proven leader and winner to Brunton Park in Morgan Feeney.
"Morgan truly embodies our ethos and our ambitions for the future. His return marks an exciting step forward as we continue building a team that reflects our values and vision."
This deal will be completed upon the expiration of his current contract and he'll officially join the club on 1 July.
