Colchester have signed former Ipswich captain Luke Chambers on a two-year deal.
The 35-year-old defender follows his former team-mate Cole Skuse in signing for Colchester, leaving Portman Road after nine years with Ipswich.
Chambers, who has made almost 800 appearances in an 18-year career, told Colchester’s website: “It’s something that really interested me with how the club dealt with the last year, obviously it wasn’t the season on the pitch that the club wanted.
“The chairman put a plan in place to get us in a position for this year to be able to really try and do something.
“That appealed to me straight away – I want to be coming to a club that has aspirations of being promoted and wanting to improve.”
