Clarkson quits Bradford

Bradford have announced that young forward Lewis Clarkson has left the club in search of first-team football.

Clarkson, who featured once for the Bantams, was due to quit the League One side in the summer, but has agreed to leave with immediate effect. Boss Phil Parkinson told the club's official website: "There are currently one or two options out there for Lewis and we felt it was best for him to go and see if he could find first-team football elsewhere. "At this stage in his career, Lewis needs to be playing regularly. We wish him all the best for the future."
