SKY CONFIRM: Everton Strike Agreement with Bradford City for Bradley Halliday
Sky Sports has confirmed that Everton have reached an agreement with Bradford City for the transfer of experienced right-back Bradley Halliday. The 28-year-old, who played a pivotal role in Bradford’s League Two campaign last season, is set to make a surprising step up to the Premier League.
Halliday, known for his consistency, defensive discipline, and ability to contribute in attack, made over 40 appearances for the Bantams last season. His performances reportedly caught the attention of several Championship and League One clubs, but it’s Everton who have swooped in with a concrete offer.
While the fee remains undisclosed, it is believed to be a modest sum with potential add-ons based on appearances and performance. Halliday is expected to provide depth and competition at right-back for Sean Dyche’s squad, potentially acting as cover for Seamus Coleman and Nathan Patterson.
Sources suggest a medical is imminent, and personal terms are close to being finalised. The move reflects Dyche’s desire to add reliable, hard-working professionals to his squad, particularly with a tight budget at Goodison Park.
This transfer marks a significant moment in Halliday’s career, offering him a remarkable opportunity to prove himself at the highest level of English football.
