Bradford City have shaken up League Two with the sensational capture of a standout Stockport County midfielder on a massive contract. In a move that’s caught many by surprise, the Bantams showed their financial clout to snatch one of the division’s most reliable and influential talents.
The high-profile addition underlines Bradford’s determination to mount a serious promotion charge, ripping up the usual spending playbook to land their target. Excitement is already building at Valley Parade, while rivals are left scrambling to react to such a bold power play.
This is more than just a transfer — it’s a statement. Bradford mean business, and they’re ready to defy convention to get results.
Stockport County midfielder Nick Powell is poised to make the switch to League One rivals Bradford City, according to BBC Radio Leeds.
The 31-year-old still has a year remaining on his deal at Edgeley Park, but Stockport boss Dave Challinor revealed last month that talks were underway to terminate his contract early.
Powell, who has previously played for Manchester United, Wigan, and Crewe, endured an injury-plagued season last year, featuring in only nine matches.
Should an agreement be finalised between Stockport and Powell’s camp, the midfielder is expected to put pen to paper with the Bantams next week.
