Luke Berry (born 12 July 1992) is an English professional footballer who plays for Cambridge United as a central midfielder.
Career
Cambridge United
Born in Cambridge, Berry played for Comberton Crusaders before joining Cambridge United's youth setup before making the step up to the first team squad in July 2009.
Barnsley
Despite Cambridge's promotion, and signing a new contract with the club, Berry left to join Barnsley just days before his home town club's return to League Two.[3] The move to Barnsley was seen as a step up, given their traditional larger support and their place in the higher League One.
Berry signed a three-year deal with The Tykes,[3] and made his Football League debut in their opening day loss at home to Crawley, playing 77 minutes before being replaced by forward Nana Boakye-Yiadom.[4] He scored his first goal for Barnsley in a EFL Trophy match against Oldham Athletic on 7 October 2014.[5] He scored his first league goal when he scored a last minute equaliser against Peterborough United on 18 April 2015.[6]
Cambridge United
On 15 June 2015, Berry re-signed for his home club, agreeing to join Cambridge United on a four-year deal for an undisclosed fee.
