Bradford City AFC is delighted to announce the return of Tyreik Wright, who arrives on loan from Plymouth Argyle for the remainder of the 2023/24 season. 

The pacey winger will spend the rest of the campaign at the University of Bradford Stadium, after a fruitful spell on loan from Aston Villa last term. 

Wright, 22, netted four goals in 17 appearances for the Bantams, before being recalled by Villa and making a permanent switch to Home Park 12 months ago. 

On re-joining City, he said: “I am absolutely buzzing. I know what it is like to be here, and it was a no-brainer for me to come back with all the love I got from the fans last time. 

“I played my best football here, and every game I played with a smile on my face. I feel like I let people down a little bit with the way I left last January, so am here to repay everyone. 

“I am looking to get double figures in goals between now and the end of the season and help the club climb back up the table. 

“I definitely have unfinished business here and am looking to finish it between now and the end of the season.

“I am buzzing to walk out in front of the fans again and hear my name called out. I will try to do my best for them.”

Manager Graham Alexander said: “We are delighted to be bringing Tyreik back to the club.

“His work rate, pace and goal threat will be very valuable to us, giving us an extra dimension to our attacking options.

“After speaking with Tyreik, it was clear he was highly motivated to play for us again. I am really looking forward to working with him.”

Wright will wear the No.36 shirt throughout his loan spell, and be sponsored by Bingley Bantams. His signing is subject to the relevant EFL and FA clearances.
