Former Arsenal and England star drops into League Two! Ex-Gunner joins Bromley and could make his debut this weekend

After two years with the Newcastle Jets in the A-League, Bromley have announced the signing of former West Ham and Arsenal right-back Jenkinson. The 32-year-old could make his debut for the club this weekend against fellow League Two side Milton Keynes Dons.

Jenkinson began his career at Charlton Athletic, where his performances caught the attention of Arsenal - who he signed for in 2011. While he only played 70 times for Arsenal, he also featured for the Hammers, Nottingham Forest, and made his England debut in a 4-2 loss to Sweden in 2012. For Bromley to sign such a player is quite the coup.

Jenkinson has spent the last three seasons down in Australian top-flight football, playing for Melbourne City on loan, before signing a two-year deal with the Newcastle Jets. He has won two trophies in his career: an FA Cup with Arsenal in 2014 and a A-League Premiership title in 2022.

Bromley - who sit 18th in League Two after seven games this season - have confirmed Jenkinson will either play against MK Dons this weekend or at home to Chesterfield on Tuesday night.
