Medy Elito has agreed a two-year deal with Cambridge.
The 25-year old winger snubbed a new deal at Sky Bet League Two rivals Newport to join the U's.
Elito told his new club's website: "Cambridge United is a good team so I'm very pleased to be signing.
"After I spoke to the manager and to Jez George (CEO), they told me about where they wanted to take the club and it feels like the right place to move forward. I also like that it's a family club.
"It's a great opportunity to push myself on as a player, and for the team I'll be looking to play my part to continue moving upwards."
Boss Shaun Derry added: "I'm delighted that we have been able to bring in Medy as the next signing for the upcoming season.
"Medy brings a different type of attacking option our way and is one I'm sure our fans will enjoy watching next season.
"Having been one of Newport's stand-out players last year, we're expecting him to improve our forward options with the creativity he possesses."
