Ex-Newcastle United youngster joins League Two side
Bradford City have announced the signing of former Newcastle United man Adam Wilson. The 23-year-old has moved to Valley Parade from Welsh Premier League side The New Saints (TNS). Wilson featured for Newcastle’s Under-21 side and played in the EFL Trophy for the Magpies but never made a senior appearance for the club before leaving to join TNS last summer.
Speaking about his move to the Bantams, Wilson admitted it was ‘difficult’ to say no to a move to Bradford - a team he believes should be playing higher up in the football pyramid. Wilson said: "This is a big club that should be a lot higher up in the leagues, with a great manager and fanbase, so it was difficult to say no.
"I love playing in front of big crowds. I did it a few times at Newcastle, and it really gets your adrenaline going."
