The Milano Seamen are beefing up their offensive line with another European import. After Frenchman Thomas Fileccia and German Francesco Runco, British national team player Lewis Thomas will be on board for the Seamen’s inaugural season as well.

“I think we will go far this year.”

The 24-year-old Brit, who is standing at 1.92 meters and weighs in at 128 kilograms, showed last season that he is the best left guard in the European League of Football, earning him a First-Team All-Star selection. Thomas had a big impact on the Hamburg Sea Devils, being their best offensive lineman and a difference maker in the running and passing game.
