Colchester United have signed winger Harry Anderson on a two-year contract following his release by Stevenage.

The 27-year-old spent the second half of last season on loan with the U's, scoring twice in 10 League Two appearances.

He is boss Danny Cowley's second signing of the summer, following former Portsmouth goalkeeper Matt Macey.

Anderson previously played under Cowley and brother Nicky, his assistant, during loan spells at Braintree and Lincoln City.

"The boy has won promotion out of League Two twice, knows exactly what it takes," Cowley told 大象传媒 Essex Sport.

"He plays in a position where he's trying to do the hardest things in the game which is create goals and score goals, but he just gives you a level of consistency.

"You know exactly what you're going to get from him, you're going to get his absolute very best. If you can sign enough boys with that mentality, that will to win and that attitude and work ethic, then you won't be far short."
