Nathan Delfouneso's first words after leaving Bolton Wanderers for Bradford City loan transfer

Nathan Delfouneso admits he is excited to get going at Bradford City after sealing a loan move away from Bolton Wanderers.

The 30-year-old attacker has joined the Bantams on a loan deal which runs until the end of the season.

The attacker has made 20 appearances this season for Bolton and scored twice, but most of these have been from the bench and he has started just two matches all season in League One for the club.

Delfouneso made 47 appearances last season and scored eight goals and was part of the squad which won promotion out of League Two last season.

But he has found regular game time hard to come by this season and has slipped down the pecking order at Wanderers - but has now joined the Bantams for the remainder of the campaign.

Delfouneso found the back of the net for Wanderers against his new team last season in a 1-1 draw and he is aiming to repay the faith that Derek Adams' side have shown in bringing him to Valley Parade.

Delfouneso said: “I am excited at the prospect of joining a club like Bradford City and am looking forward to getting going.

“I have spoken with the manager and he has clearly outlined the aim of promotion. He believes in me and has shown faith to bring me here, so it is up to me to repay that.

“I scored at Valley Parade last year for Bolton so am looking forward to playing there in a Bradford City shirt, and just cannot wait to get out on the field and help the club achieve its goals for the season.”
