Marcus Lemar Ifill (born 2 November 2003) is an English professional footballer who plays as a winger for EFL League One club Bromley.

Career

Having started his youth career with hometown club Swindon Town, Ifill joined the Brighton & Hove Albion Academy in January 2020. Shortly after joining, he was named by The Guardian as the best first-year scholar at the club. He signed a new three-year contract in August 2022.

Bromley

On 3 February 2025, Ifill signed for League Two club Bromley on a permanent deal. On 25 February, he made his senior league debut as a second-half substitute in a 1–0 home defeat to Bradford City. On 15 November 2025, he scored a first competitive goal for the club in a 2–1 victory over Barrow.

He made 40 league appearances during the 2025–26 season as the Ravens won promotion to League One for the first time in the club's history as League Two champions.

His contract with Bromley was renewed for the 2026–27 season, after the club exercised a contract option.
