Former Luton full-back Bramall wants to help MK Dons to promotion after agreeing move
MK Dons have completed their second signing of the summer
Cohen Bramall hopes he can help MK Dons continue their positive momentum from last season and turn it into a promotion fight after becoming the club’s second signing of the summer.
The 30-year-old left-back joins centre-back Charlie Goode in joining Paul Warne’s side during the off-season, agreeing the switch after leaving Luton Town at the end of the season.
A pacey, attacking full-back, Bramall is no stranger to the Dons head coach, having played for him briefly at Rotherham United earlier in his career, and has racked up nearly 300 career appearances throughout the EFL pyramid.
Filling a gap left in the Dons squad by the departures of Jon Mellish and Joe Tomlinson, Bramall said the club has plenty of positive energy heading into the new season, and he hopes he can help push them on.
“This season is massive for MK Dons,” he said. “The momentum we have now is huge and starting strong is really important. I back Paul Warne to get promoted again, hence why I came here because I want to get promoted.
“Dons fans can expect a confident and fast player who likes to take free-kicks. I’ll keep going until the wheels fall off, and that’s what I build my game around.
“There’s a lot more directness in League One but I’ve had a lot of experience playing in it which helps a lot.”
On signing the defender for a second time, Warne said he feel Bramall will tick a lot of boxes, especially for his attacking attributes.
He said: “Cohen Bramall is a player I've had before. He’s had a really good career, and he’s very quick on the pitch.
“He’s like a full-back that has winger tendencies, who always wants to take people on and gives us a great dynamic energy down the left side.
“He’s someone I've worked with before and we've always kept in touch. I always keep in touch with my old players, so this was a pretty easy signing and it was easy to convince him to come here.
“He wants to get back to the Championship, so he's another great addition to the squad and he’ll make us stronger for when pre-season properly start, so I’m really pleased with him.”
