FOOTBALL - Redditch United confirm departure of top scorer Bernard Mensah

REDDITCH United have confirmed the departure of last season’s top scorer Bernard Mensah who has relocated to Twickenham.

The striker topped the club’s goalscoring charts last season with 17 goals in 48 appearances but has opted to continue his career down south.

Mensah originally signed for the Reds on loan in 2021/22 before returning to the club on a permanent basis last term.

Mensah said: “I can only say thank you for everything last season. From the chairman to the gaffer and his backroom staff who worked hard last season to bring me into the club and had faith in me to get back to my best and allowed me to enjoy football again.

“To the fans who continuously supported me and the boys through the ups and downs last season. Win, lose or draw you sang home and away.

“Everyone behind the scenes in the bar, media, academy and volunteers who made my time at the club memorable. Definitely too many to name but you guys all know who you are.




“To all the lads that played a part this season, it was definitely one of the best changing rooms I’ve been involved in during my career so far.

“All we achieved on the pitch and off it would not have been possible without all the lads pulling in the same direction from the start.


“My time was short but definitely sweet. I’ll be keeping an eye out for results and cheering the club on from afar., thank you for everything.”
