Former Norwich striker Jamie Cureton has taken charge of Northern Premier League side Cambridge City.

The 48-year-old moves to Westwood Road after his spell as a player/coach at Maldon & Tiptree came to an end, having also spent time at Bishop's Stortford and Enfield.

Speaking to official club channels, he said:  "I am thrilled to be appointed as the new manager of Cambridge City Football Club. This is a fantastic opportunity, and I am eager to start this new chapter with such an historic and passionate club.

"I believe in a strong team ethic, hard work, and dedication, both on and off the field. My goal is to build on the solid foundation already in place, bringing fresh ideas and strategies to help the club achieve our ambitions.

"I am looking forward to getting to work straight away as there is a lot to do before the season starts. I cannot wait to meet and get to know everyone at the club including our loyal supporters. Together, we can strive for success and make this season a memorable one for everyone involved with Cambridge City FC.

"Thank you for your warm welcome. Let's get to work and make great things happen."

Cureton spent a combined 11 years in Norfolk, first coming through the Colney academy before leaving for Bristol Rovers in 1996.

He returned in 2007 to help City to Championship safety, departing again in 2010 after they won the League One title.
