Cambridge United have signed Gassan Ahadme on a season-long loan from Charlton Athletic. The 25-year-old forward will reunite with former boss Neil Harris, who he played under during a previous loan spell at the Abbey Stadium.
What happened?
Gassan Ahadme's loan stint at Fratton Park was cut short in 2021, but he has since had spells at Burton Albion and Stevenage.
He scored 13 goals in 33 appearances for Cambridge United during the 2023-24 season, and it is hoped that his reunion with Neil Harris will help unlock his potential.
Why it matters for Cambridge United
The signing of Gassan Ahadme is a significant boost for Cambridge United, who are currently 3rd in League Two with 82 points from 46 games.
Their recent form has been inconsistent, with a record of 2W-2D-1L in their last 5 games, but they will be hoping that Ahadme's arrival will help them push for promotion.

What comes next?
Gassan Ahadme will be looking to make an immediate impact for Cambridge United, who are currently 5 points behind leaders Bromley in League Two.
Their last result was a 0-0 draw against Crewe on 2026-05-02, and they will be hoping to build on that with Ahadme in the team.
Charlton boss Nathan Jones said: 'It's an excellent loan for Gassan. He's going to work with someone who he's done very well for before and someone that I know will get the best out of him.'
