Jordan Stevens Joins Bradford City From Leeds United
Stevens Looking to Impress at Bradford
At just 20-years-old, Jordan Stevens has an exciting future ahead of him. The winger began his career at Forest Green Rovers before being snapped up by Leeds in 2018.
The youngster has made six appearances for Leeds since his arrival but is in need of regular game time.
Stevens has already spent time away from Elland Road this season, having spent the first half of the campaign on loan at League One strugglers Swindon Town. He made 16 appearances at the County Ground, scoring once.
What Was Said
Speaking to the clubs’ official website, Stevens said: “I am delighted to be here. It is a very big club and I am looking forward to meeting up with the rest of the lads.
“I have played in this division before and have picked up a fair bit of experience at Swindon Town this season, so am excited for the challenge.
“As soon as I knew Bradford City were interested I made it known that I wanted to come here. Hopefully, I can kick on and get some more games under my belt.”
Mark Trueman, who is the clubs’ interim manager following the sacking of Stuart McCall last month, added: “Jordan is someone we have been monitoring closely for a while, now, and we are delighted to have got his signing completed.
“Leeds United have been great in agreeing to recall him from Swindon and allowing him to join us. At this level, we are confident he will bring a lot to our squad.
“He is a very talented player – with raw pace and a naturally direct edge to his play – and we are looking forward to seeing him in action.”
Bradford City Woes
Bradford find themselves just four points clear of the relegation zone in League Two. A run of six straight defeats ended McCall’s tenure at the club, but the Bantams are unbeaten since his departure with three wins and two draws.
