Burton Albion Sign Former Lincoln City Midfielder Michael Bostwick
Second Player to Join From the Imps
The 32-year-old midfielder is the second player to arrive at the Pirelli Stadium from Lincoln City, following in the footsteps of Neal Eardley.
Eardley has also committed to a one-year contract with the Brewers. He was a mainstay at right-back last season for the Imps, making 39 appearances in all competitions.
However, the Coronavirus pandemic, which has meant led to cost-cutting measures – as well as Lincoln manager Michael Appleton’s desire to create a younger squad – meant that Eardley was let go following the expiry of his contract.
Unlike his team-mate, Bostwick was in and out of the Lincoln team last season, partially due to injuries. However, his versatility – the 32-year-old can play in the centre of midfield and defence – meant that he made 20 appearances for Michael Appleton’s side.
What Was Said?
Speaking to the official Burton Albion website about joining the club, Bostwick said: “I spoke to Beardo (Chris Beardsley) who I played with a few years ago at Stevenage after the season had ended. I came and met the gaffer (Jake Buxton) and it all just seemed right.
“I’ve spoken to him about the plans for the future and it all seems perfect – it’s a great club.
“Burton Albion have had a lot of success over the years and it probably has gone a little bit unnoticed to some people. The fans have always been good and got behind the team when I have come here.
“It’s a lovely stadium, lovely place and I can’t wait to get started!
“I’ll give everything while I’m out there, I’ll give one hundred percent and that’s all I can do every game.”
