Marcus Ifill, a striker for Brighton, has signed a permanent contract with League Two Bromley for an undisclosed amount of money. “The offer from Bromley gives Marcus the opportunity to play regular senior football to establish himself,” said technical director David Weir, adding, “We wish him the best of luck for the future.”
