Jordy Hiwula has joined Sky Bet League 1 Bradford on a season-long loan from West Yorkshire neighbours Huddersfield.
The 21-year-old forward, a former England under-18 and under-19 international, is the Bantams' fifth signing of the summer.
Hiwula has experience of third-tier football having spent time on loan at Wigan and Walsall last season.
He told Bradford's official website: "'I've played here a few times and every time I've played here the crowd have been magnificent.
"I think the way that Bradford play will suit the way I play as well. I like coming short, getting on the ball and linking up the play, but I also like stretching defences and playing in behind.
'When I heard about the move, I spoke to Nahki (Huddersfield striker, Wells) and asked him what's it like at Bradford and he said that I'll love every minute and to go and enjoy it; that's what I'm willing to do, to come here and enjoy my football."
Hiwula began his career at Manchester City and had a loan spell with Yeovil in 2014 before joining Huddersfield last summer.
