Boro Bring in New Defender

Pitching In Southern League Premier Division Central club Nuneaton Borough have signed defender Steven (Chukwumeka) Beejer from Northern Premier League Division One Midlands side Belper Town.

Born in Kharkiv, Ukraine, his father is Nigerian, and he holds a Nigerian passport and moved to England in 2004.

He originally played for United Counties League Premier Division North side Eastwood Community, whom he joined in September of the 2016/17 academic year.

He produced an impressive performance against Notts County's academy in a mid-season friendly and was taken on trial by the Magpies, but the move never materialised.

He returned to Eastwood and continued to turn out impressive defence displays and even chipped in with some goals.

He departed Eastwood Community at the end of the 2018/19 season, and joined Nuneaton`s league rivals Tamworth, initially on trial, but officially signed for the club in July 2019, following some impressive displays.

He joined the Nailers in September 2021.
