Alex Bangura (born 13 July 1999, age 27) is a Sierra Leonean left-back with Middlesbrough, where he wears the number 24 shirt. His market value is around £595,000, according to Transfermarkt.
The main body of his senior career was built at Cambuur. Across six seasons he made 106 league appearances and scored five league goals, giving him a proper run of first-team football rather than the usual patchwork of short stops and hopeful loans.
His most productive league season came in 2021–22, when he scored three times in 27 appearances for Cambuur. For a left-back, that was a useful return, and it underlined his importance in a side where he had become a regular presence.
Bangura is now at Middlesbrough. In 2025–26 he has made 13 Championship appearances and scored one goal, continuing his career in England after the long Cambuur spell that did most to shape him as a senior player.
