Marc Bola

Player Biography

Marc Bola became summer signing number three when he joined from Blackpool in July 2019.
An Arsenal Academy youth product, Bola enjoyed spells with Notts County and Bristol Rovers before signing for the Seasiders in the summer of 2018.
In his only campaign for Blackpool, Bola made 43 appearances and grabbed his first-ever goal in the EFL against AFC Wimbledon.
He finished the season by winning the club's Player and Players' Player of the Year awards.
Marc made his Boro debut against Crewe in the Carabao Cup in August 2019, scoring a late equaliser, and followed that by making his league debut against Wigan at the Riverside later that month.
The left-back returned to Blackpool on loan for the second half of the 2019/20 campaign.
Returning to Boro for 2020/21, Marc was a revelation under manager Neil Warnock and quickly became a mainstay at left-back.
He was rewarded for his form with a new contract just before Christmas 2020, which runs until at least 2024.
