Michael Cheek

Michael Harry Cheek (born 23 August 1991) is an English professional footballer who plays as a striker for club Bromley.

Cheek played non-League football at a low level initially, turning out for Stanway Rovers in the Eastern Counties League and Marks Tey in the Colchester & East Essex League. He moved on to Heybridge Swifts of the Isthmian League in May 2012. He then secured a move to Conference South club Chelmsford City in January 2014. He was named Chelmsford City Player of the Year for the 2014–15 season and moved up a division to Braintree Town in May 2015. He scored 34 goals in 84 National League games over two seasons, though he could not prevent the club from being relegated. In June 2017, he turned professional by signing for Dagenham & Redbridge. He was sold on to Ebbsfleet United in August 2018, where he continued his excellent scoring record despite the club's financial problems.

He joined Bromley in May 2019 and went on to become the top scorer of the National League at the end of the 2020–21 campaign, also winning a place on the National League Team of the Year. He was capped by England C in 2022 and scored the winning goal for Bromley in the 2022 FA Trophy final. He scored two goals in the 2024 National League play-off final victory to win Bromley promotion to the English Football League (EFL). He turned 33 shortly after playing his first EFL game, though he belied his age by winning the League Two Golden Boot at the end of the 2024–25 season, being named on the Team of the Season and PFA Team of the Year, as well as the League Two Player of the Year award. Bromley won the EFL League Two title at the end of the 2025–26 season. Provided by Wikipedia
