Bromley striker Cheek signs new contract
Michael Cheek has signed a contract extension with Bromley.
The 31-year-old has scored 57 goals in 151 appearances since joining the Ravens from Ebbsfleet United in 2019.
Centre-forward Cheek scored the winning goal in last season’s 1-0 FA Trophy final victory over Wrexham at Wembley.
“I love this club,” Cheek told the club’s official website after penning a new deal. “I’ve been here a while now, so I’m delighted to get it over the line.
“It’s another special day for me after that win at Wembley. It was an incredible day for myself, my family, the fans and obviously for the club.
“I’ve been here for four years now and I can’t wait to make some more special memories.”
