King was released from Norwich, who he had been playing for since he was eight-years-old, in the summer of 2016 having made one appearance for the Canaries’ senior side.

He was a part of the Norwich Youth Cup winning side of 2013, and has also played for Scotland's U21's.

He was recently playing for his hometown club of Thetford Town in the Eastern Counties Premier Division.

Speaking about his latest signing, Stephen Bradleay said: “I was made aware of Cameron about six weeks ago and advised that I should take a serious look at him. 

“Sometimes you get players in and they’re not what people say they are. Cameron was and he’s definitely going to be an attacking threat for us. 

“We got him initially for just two or three days and straight away we liked what we saw. He’s very direct, very clever on the ball.

“He can play any attacking position, right, left or as a 10. We have him until the end of the season so hopefully he can show that quality.  

“He has good character, he’s hungry to get his career back on track and hopefully this is the place for him. I see him being a good player for us between now and the end of the season and making a real impact.”
