Kamarl Grant has returned to Bromley for his third loan spell with the club following their promotion to League One.

The 23-year-old defender began his senior career with Sheffield United before joining Millwall in 2022, and since then he has been loaned out to Dagenham & Redbridge and Blackpool as well as having two spells at Hayes Lane.

He has made 58 appearances for the Ravens across those two previous stays, scoring two goals, and he helped the club to promotion to the English Football League in 2024.

Grant came through the youth system at Crystal Palace and, after his release by the Eagles, played for Kinetic Academy, where his performances alerted Blades scouts.

He made three appearances for Blackpool in League One last season after moving to Bloomfield Road for the second half of the campaign.
