Burgess signs

Last updated : 20 July 2016 By The Chairman

Cameron Burgess is the latest signing of new manager Stephen Robinson. The huge centre-back (6ft 5in) has been at Fulham for the last five years and has completed a six-month loan deal. An Australia under-23 international, he was on loan at Cheltenham where he helped Gary Johnson's side to win the title.

The manager said, “Cameron is a left-sided centre-back who gives us a lot more physique and experience. He is a very good player who gives us a big physical presence and a left-footer too, which is rare to have. He enhances what we have. Jamie Stott and George Edmundson were outstanding for me against Huddersfield, but you can't reply on young boys throughout the season. You have to have a squad and it's an area of the pitch we are looking at.”
