**Bromley F.C. Forward Michael Cheek Ruled Out for Three Weeks Due to Injury**
Bromley F.C. has confirmed that forward Michael Cheek will be sidelined for the next three weeks due to a recent injury. The club’s statement revealed that Cheek sustained a significant muscle strain during the team’s match against Maidenhead United last Saturday.
Cheek, who has been a crucial player for Bromley this season, was substituted in the 68th minute of the game after appearing to pull up sharply while chasing down a loose ball. Initial assessments indicated that the injury was more severe than first anticipated. Medical staff have diagnosed Cheek with a grade two hamstring strain, which typically requires a recovery period of around three weeks.
This setback is a notable blow for Bromley, who are currently engaged in a tight race for promotion in the National League. Cheek, who has been in impressive form, scoring eight goals in the league this season, has been a key offensive threat and his absence will undoubtedly be felt by the squad.
Manager Andy Woodman expressed his disappointment at the news but remained optimistic about the team’s ability to cope. “It’s unfortunate to lose Michael at such a critical time, but we have a strong squad with depth, and we need to adapt quickly,” Woodman said. “We are confident that the team will step up in his absence and continue to push for positive results.”
Bromley will look to other attacking options as they prepare for their upcoming fixtures. Fans and teammates will be hoping for a swift recovery for Cheek, who has been a standout performer for the Ravens this season. The club will provide further updates on his condition as he progresses through his rehabilitation.
