Bromley FC have extended the contract of defender Omar Sowunmi after a standout season. The 30-year-old, named in the EFL League Two Team of the Season, played a key role in their title-winning campaign and remains hopeful his form will earn him a call-up to the Super Eagles.
EFL League Two champions Bromley FC have officially triggered the contract extension option for their towering central defender, Omar Sowunmi, keeping him at Hayes Lane for another season.
The 30-year-old center-back has been an indispensable asset for the Ravens, turning in stellar defensive displays while establishing himself as a potent goalscoring threat from set-pieces. Sowunmi capped off an impressive campaign by being named in the League Two Team of the Season, a testament to his commanding presence and impact at both ends of the pitch.
Standing at a massive 6 feet 6 inches, Sowunmi has previously made his international ambitions perfectly clear, openly reiterating his desire and commitment to represent Nigeria at the senior international level.
