Carl Jenkinson joins new club after five months without a team
- Carl Jenkinson has joined Bromley after a five-month period without a club.
- He previously played for Newcastle Jets in Australia before returning to England.
- Bromley aims to improve their league standing with Jenkinson's experience in defense.
Carl Jenkinson, a former defender for Arsenal and the England national team, has signed with Bromley, a newly promoted team in League Two, after being without a club for five months. His last stint was with Newcastle Jets in Australia, which ended in April. Jenkinson, who began his career at Charlton, has a history with several clubs, including West Ham and Nottingham Forest, and earned one cap for England in 2012. His experience and skills are expected to bolster Bromley's defense, which has struggled early in the season, conceding 11 goals in just seven matches. Jenkinson's arrival comes at a crucial time as Bromley seeks to improve their performance, having won only twice so far this season. The club currently sits in 18th place in the league, and the management hopes that Jenkinson can help stabilize the backline and contribute to better results moving forward.
