Amantchi Is On The Move As Bromley Win Race For Striker

Levi Amantchi has swapped a promotion push in the National League South for one in the National League.

The talented striker has so far scored 20 goals this season as he helped fire Maidstone United into title contention.

Bromley have been keeping tabs on the 23-year-old and have moved to bring him to Hayes Lane, adding to the club’s arsenal of attacking talent.

They paid a fee to lure him from the Gallagher Stadium and Andy Woodman hopes the new arrival could prove to be the difference.

Bromley stayed in second place this weekend with their win at Southend United but remain eight points behind leaders Chesterfield.

Maidstone director of football Bill Williams said: “Let me say from the outset that we are all very disappointed to see Levi go and I know that view will be shared by everyone at our club. He’s been a revelation this season and his goals have played a crucial part in our league and cup success to date.

“I truly believed he would see out this season with us, despite the interest we were expecting leading up to and during the January transfer window. He expressed a wish to stay and we offered terms to extend his contract. However, Bromley made him an exceptional offer that he felt he couldn’t turn down and we simply couldn’t compete with it.

“We mustn’t forget that Levi was injured recently and we were reckoning on being without him anyway till end January. Now George, Craig, Zach and myself are already actively in the market searching for a replacement striker.”
