Boreham Wood Rejects £1m Bid for Forward Abdul Abdulmalik
Boreham Wood has declined a £1m bid from Djurgarden for forward Abdul Abdulmalik, highlighting their determination to keep the player. The offer matches the record sale fee for a National League player, previously set by Leicester City for Jamie Vardy.
Abdulmalik, 23, had a standout season in 2025-26, scoring 17 goals and providing 10 assists, including a goal and an assist in the play-off final at Wembley. He began his career at Millwall, where he progressed through the youth ranks but was released in 2024.
After joining Boreham Wood as a free agent, Abdulmalik quickly became one of the league's most promising attackers. Djurgarden's interest aligns with their strategy of scouting players before their market value peaks, aiming for profitable transfers.
