Jermain Defoe linked to Bromley coaching role alongside Karl Robinson

Former Tottenham Hotspur striker Jermain Defoe is reportedly being considered for an assistant manager position at Bromley. Defoe may join Karl Robinson, who is a leading candidate to replace dismissed manager Andy Woodman.

Bromley currently sits at the bottom of League One following a difficult start to the season, having secured only two wins in 13 matches. The club has been searching for a new manager since Woodman was sacked on October 22.

This potential move follows Defoe’s brief tenure as manager of Woking, which ended in July after less than four months following reported tensions with the club's director of football. Robinson, who has previously managed clubs such as Charlton Athletic and MK Dons, is expected to lead a staff that could also include Craig Short.
