Bradford City transfer news: Bantams loan Jake Young to League Two promotion rivals Barrow

The Bantams have signed three forwards in January – Dara Costelloe, Thierry Nevers and Matt Derbyshire – along with defender Ciaran Kelly.

There have been outgoings too, with Lee Angol and Fiacre Kelleher sold to Sutton United and Colchester United respectively, and now Young has been moved on too, in his case until the end of the season.

The Huddersfield-born 21-year-old joined from Forest Green Rovers in the summer but has been limited to three League Two starts, plus four appearances from the bench.

The first of his two league goals came against Barrow in August, and he scored twice against Sheffield Wednesday in the Football League Trophy.

Barrow are level on points with Bradford in the League Two play-off places, having played a game more.
