Bristol Rovers is delighted to confirm the signing of Micah Anthony.
Anthony has put pen-to-paper on an two-year deal with the option of another season with Rovers, and joins the Gas following a short trial with the Club, having departed Queens Park Rangers at the end of last season.
A versatile winger with an abundance of pace, Anthony is Rovers’ thirteenth signing of the summer.
“It feels great to join Bristol Rovers,” the 20-year-old said. “This is a great step for me. Bristol Rovers is a big club that will challenge me and help me develop as a player. I feel like I can only get better working with the other players here and with the coaches here too.
“I got to experience The Mem with those two pre-season games too and it was an amazing feeling to step out onto that pitch. Everyone has been so supportive of me, from the fans, to my teammates, to the gaffer, and I’ve felt so welcome at this Club.
“Everyone has made me feel so welcome here and I’m excited to be here.”
Manager Matt Taylor welcomed Anthony to Bristol Rovers and is looking forward to working with him, having been impressed with the youngster during his trial.
Taylor said: “We are pleased to sign Micah and welcome him to the team at Bristol Rovers.
“Since being with us on trial, Micah has shown us his talent and personality. He has a high ceiling in terms of his potential and we’re looking forward to seeing him develop with us in the coming months.”
Anthony first joined Queens Park Rangers at U9s level, having previously spent time with Tottenham Hotspur and Crystal Palace.
The winger progressed through the QPR academy and earned a spot in the U18s team, before progressing into the U21s in the 2022/23 campaign. A spell on loan with non-league side Hanwell Town in the same season also helped Anthony’s development.
Everyone at Bristol Rovers is delighted to welcome Micah to the Club and wish him every success for his career in the blue-and-white quarters.
