Wycombe Wanderers have confirmed the exit of goalkeeper Shamal George, who has signed for Bromley after two seasons at Adams Park.
What led to George’s departure?
George arrived at Wycombe in the summer of 2024 as a backup option, but the presence of Nathan Bishop, Franco Ravizzoli and later Will Norris kept him out of league action. After a brief loan spell at St Mirren, where he was part of the squad that lifted the Scottish League Cup in 2025, the 27‑year‑old sought regular football elsewhere. Bromley’s promotion to League One offered the perfect platform, and the club announced his signing in early July.
How did George perform for Wycombe?
He never featured in a League One match for the Chairboys, but he did make five cup appearances. His most notable outing came on 13 January 2025, when Wycombe earned a 2‑0 FA Cup win over Portsmouth; George was forced off after seven minutes with a groin injury. Those cup games gave him a glimpse of first‑team action, yet the competition for the No. 1 shirt remained fierce, limiting his chances to showcase his abilities.
What does his move mean for Bromley and Wycombe?
For Bromley, acquiring a keeper with experience at a higher level bolsters a squad that just earned promotion to League One. George brings professionalism and the knowledge of a club that finished 11th in League One with 63 pts, a record of 17 wins, 12 draws and 17 losses, and a recent form of W L L D L. Wycombe, meanwhile, retain a strong goal‑keeping roster and can focus on developing their younger options without the need to juggle a third senior keeper.
Where does Wycombe stand now?
Wycombe Wanderers sit 11th in League One, holding 63 points from 46 games with a recent run of W L L D L. They have scored 69 goals and conceded 58, leaving them +11 on goal difference, but they sit 40 points behind leaders Lincoln in the title race. The club’s focus remains on consolidating their mid‑table position while nurturing talent for the next season.
