A former Carlisle United loan goalkeeper could face the Blues in 2023/24 after joining one of their League One rivals.

Lukas Jensen, who had a spell with the Cumbrians in the 2021/22 campaign, has signed from Lincoln City.

It comes following his release from Burnley.

He had been on loan from the Clarets with Accrington Stanley last season, following a stint with United the previous term.

The big Dane, speaking on the club website, said of his move to the Imps: "It’s been in the pipeline for a few weeks now and I couldn't be happier to get it over the line.

"I've been following the club in recent years and have seen loads of young keepers who have played lots of games.

"Having spoken to people at the club, everything they’ve told me shows me this is the perfect fit. Lincoln is definitely the right call for what I need now and in the future."

Head coach Mark Kennedy said Jensen was their "number one" goalkeeping target.

The 24-year-old joined United during Chris Beech's spell but only made four appearances in an injury-hit spell.

His only league outing came in Beech's last game in charge - the 3-0 defeat to Bristol Rovers in October 2021 that preceded his sacking.

Carlisle will discover when they face Lincoln and their fellow League One clubs when the new season fixtures are released this Thursday morning.
