Scout report

Squad depthGoal-getting Attacking midfielder

B. Thompson is a 30-year-old attacking midfielder at Bromley, enjoying a standout season — 8 goals and 2 assists in 34 appearances, a Season grade of 19, top 50% of League Two attacking midfielders. On long-term scout potential he's rated 17.9, ranking 346th of 478 in the League Two. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member (32% of available minutes). He brings 0.68 goal contributions per 90 (0.54 goals, 0.14 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Thompson.

Judged on this season alone, Thompson graded 19 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 30th of 60 of the 60 attacking midfielders in the League Two, on 8 goals and 2 assists in 34 appearances (0.679 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 22 → 19). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 18, 50th of 60 of the 60 attacking midfielders in the League Two. At 30 Thompson is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.6 reflects that trajectory.
