Lija Athletic confirmed their second signing since the opening of this summer transfer season on Sunday as former Gudja United forward Miguel Antonio Perez Jimenez joins the newly promoted side for the coming season.
The 27-year old Colombian becomes part of Joseph Galea’s squad in hopes of retaining their Premier League status for the first time as a club.
