FORMER Colchester United loanee Beryly Lubala has signed for Wycombe Wanderers.

The 26-year-old forward, who played for the U's on loan last season, has joined the League One side on a short-term deal where he will play under former Colchester boss Matt Bloomfield.

Lubala, who played briefly under Bloomfield at Colchester last season, has most recently been playing his football at fellow League One team Burton Albion, where he scored six times in the current campaign.

Writing on social media, Lubala said: 'Delighted to sign for @wwfcofficial. I’m excited to play at Adams Park and being able to call it home.

'A huge thank you to the club for making the effort to bring myself and my family here.

 

'I hope I can make the entire Wycombe community proud; both here in Buckinghamshire and all of those around the world in Europe, South America, and beyond! Come on you Chairboys!'

Lubala joined Colchester on a season-long loan from Championship club Blackpool, in August, 2022.

 

The former Crawley Town youngster made an instant impression, scoring on his debut for the club in their 1-1 draw with Hartlepool United, last September.

But he was restricted to eight league appearances at the U's, only three of which were starts.

In total, Lubala made 12 league and cup appearances for the U's, during his time at the JobServe Community Stadium.
