Goalkeeper Giosue Bellagambi, of Ugandan decent has signed a professional employment contract at Huddersfield Town.

Born in the Croydon town, south London in England, Bellagambi is eligible to play for England, Italy and Uganda.

He was a regular starter for the Under-17s in his debut season after signing from junior club Lambeth Tigers.

Bellagambi is among the five players who successfully completed their two-year scholarships at the club christened as The Terriers.

The other four include centre backs Tom Bamford and Nassim Kherbouche, full back Sam Sharrock-Peplow and the versatile Jaheim Headley.

Danny Simpson will depart the Club when his contract expires at the end of June, whilst Kamil Grabara will also return to parent club Liverpool Football Club.

It’s great news that we’ve come to agreements with seven of our players, who are out of contract at the end of the season, to play into July 2020. These are unprecedented circumstances for football and footballers, and I want to thank them for their commitment to the cause at a vital time for the Club. As we’ve said already, we cannot commit to any future contracts for senior players now; we need to know what division we’re in, and what next season will look like in terms of start date and circumstances. There’s an awful lot to play for, for both the Club and the players
