Bromley have completed the signing of midfielder JJ McKiernan from Lincoln City for an undisclosed fee. The 24-year-old arrives at Hayes Lane after impressing during a season-and-a-half loan at Burton Albion, where he made 54 appearances and scored three goals.

Who is JJ McKiernan?

McKiernan began his career in Watford’s academy before gaining experience with loan spells at Bohemians and Eastleigh. He secured a permanent move to Morecambe in League Two in 2023, where he spent a season before joining Lincoln City. His versatility and work rate make him a valuable addition to Bromley’s midfield.

Why this move matters for Bromley

After winning League Two last season with 87 points (24W-15D-7L), Bromley are preparing for their first campaign in League One. McKiernan’s experience in higher divisions will bolster their squad as they aim to build on their recent success. The Ravens ended the 2025 season with a +25 goal difference (71 scored, 46 conceded) and finished just one point clear of Milton Keynes Dons.

What’s next for Bromley?

With their latest signing, Bromley continue to strengthen ahead of the new season. Their last result, a 3-0 friendly win over Crystal Palace on 25 July 2026, showcased their attacking potential. The team is on a three-game winning run (recent form: WWWLL) and will look to carry this momentum into the upcoming campaign.
