Bolton Wanderers Defender Joins Bromley on Loan
Bolton Wanderers defender Richard Taylor has joined Bromley on a season-long loan deal. Taylor made 14 appearances for Wanderers and scored against Huddersfield Town in the FA Cup.
Why it Matters for Bolton Wanderers
Taylor's departure leaves a gap in Wanderers' defense, which may impact their League One campaign. The club has brought in Akin Famewo from Hull City, who can play as a left centre-back or left-back.
What Comes Next?
Bromley kick off the League One campaign with a trip to Barnsley on Saturday, August 15. Before that, they host Reading in the Carabao Cup first round. Taylor is excited to join the Ravens and contribute to their promotion bid.
Taylor told the club channels, "I'm buzzing to be here, just really excited and I can't wait to get going." He also mentioned that he is close with Victor Adeboyejo, who joined Bromley earlier this summer.
Taylor's loan deal is a season-long, and he will be looking to make an impact at Bromley. The Ravens are aiming to build on their promotion from League Two last season, pipping MK Dons to the title.
Background
Taylor joined Wanderers on a free transfer from St Mirren last summer, penning a three-year contract. However, he suffered an injury during his first pre-season at the club and had to be patient for minutes in League One due to Max Conway's form.
Taylor made 14 appearances in all competitions and got on the scoresheet against Huddersfield Town in the FA Cup. The defender travelled with the Bolton squad for their recent training camp in Slovakia and featured against DAC 1904 but was an unused substitute against Oldham Athletic on Tuesday night.
Conclusion
Taylor's departure from Bolton Wanderers marks a new chapter in his career. He will be looking to make a positive impact at Bromley and contribute to their promotion bid. The Ravens are off to a strong start, and Taylor's arrival will add depth to their defense.
