Bromley's former captain Jude Arthurs is available on a free transfer, sparking a transfer battle between EFL and Scottish Premiership clubs.

What happened?

The 24-year-old midfielder turned down a contract at the Ravens, leading to widespread interest from multiple clubs. Arthurs spent seven years at Bromley, playing a critical role in the club's rise from the National League to League One. He made over 200 appearances for the Ravens, including 43 in their shock League Two title-winning campaign last season.

Why it matters for Bromley

Bromley's recent form has been impressive, with the club currently standing at 1st in League Two, 87 pts, 24W-15D-7L from 46 games, and a recent form of WLDLW. Their last result was a 3-1 win against Walsall on 2026-05-02. The club is also 1 point clear of Milton Keynes Dons at the top of the league.

What comes next?

Arthurs' impressive performance in the 2025-26 campaign, where he averaged 2.80 tackles, 0.76 interceptions, 0.72 blocked shots, 5.00 recoveries, and 1.82 clearances per 90 minutes, has made him a sought-after player. His ability to regain possession and keep the ball away from the goal has been impressive, and it remains to be seen which club will sign him this summer. As of 01 Jul 2026, Bromley's league standing is: | Category | Value | | --- | --- | | League standing | 1st in League Two | | Points | 87 | | Recent form | WLDLW | | Lead at the top | 1 point clear of Milton Keynes Dons | | Last result | Bromley 3-1 Walsall (2026-05-02) | The midfielder's future will be closely watched by Bromley fans, as the club looks to build on their successful campaign.
