Making his professional debut for the Reds in 2014, Kamau made a total of 29 appearances for Adelaide across two A-League seasons, including 18 matches in his second season with the South Australian club.

Having arrived in Australia from Kenya at the age of 4, Kamau commenced his youth career in Adelaide with local clubs N.A.B. SC (now Eastern United), Campbelltown City SC, Adelaide City and Adelaide Olympic, before being recruited into Adelaide Unitedโ€™s National Youth League team in 2013.

A pacy,ย skillfulย and exciting forward, Melbourne City FC Head Coach John vanโ€™t Schip said Kamau would inject energy and further depth into Cityโ€™s forward line. โ€œWeโ€™re very happy to welcome Bruce into our squad for next season.

โ€œHe is still young, has shown positive signs and he is a player we see as having great potential for further development with us.โ€

Kamau will join his new teammates in June when City commence pre-season training at the City Football Academy ahead of the 2016/17 A-League season.
