Former Super Eagles striker Victor Anichebe is reportedly on the verge of completing a takeover of EFL League One club Bromley as he prepares to make his first major move into football club ownership.

 

According to report, the former Everton forward is leading a wealthy African consortium currently in advanced negotiations to acquire the Ravens.

Anichebe, 38, is reported to be holding talks with Bromley owner Robin Stanton-Gleaves, with both parties working towards finalising an agreement.

The proposed takeover comes at a difficult period for Bromley, who have struggled to adjust to life in League One despite enjoying a remarkable rise through the English football pyramid.

The South London outfit secured promotion from the National League to League Two in 2024 before earning another promotion to League One at the end of last season.

However, their first campaign in the third tier has been far from impressive, with the club currently occupying the bottom position in the league table.

During his playing career, the former striker had stints at Everton, West Bromwich Albion and Sunderland in the Premier League
between 2006 and 2017.

At international level, Anichebe earned 11 caps for the Super Eagles and scored once for Nigeria in a 3-0 friendly match victory over Kenya in 2011.

He won a silver medal with Nigeria’s U-23 Dream Team at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, where he scored a goal against Japan during the tournament.
