Former Bradford City and Carlisle United man drops into eighth tier as he completes move to Yorkshire club
Former Bradford City and Carlisle United midfielder Danny Devine has dropped into the eighth tier to join non-league outfit Liversedge.
Devine is a product of the Bantams academy and made 53 appearances at first-team level after progressing through the club’s youth sides.
He left the club in 2020 and spent two years with Carlisle United, but dropped out of the EFL after departing Brunton Park in 2022.
In recent years, Devine has had stints in the National League North with Chester and Farsley Celtic, and in the Northern Premier League Premier Division with Guiseley and Gainsborough Trinity.
His time at Gainsborough was disrupted by injury, with Devine having suffered a clean break of his tibia earlier this year.
