Paul Mullin Joins Bradford City on Loan for Season’s End
Paul Mullin has officially joined Bradford City on loan until the end of the season. The striker’s move follows his recent return to Wrexham after a loan stint at Wigan Athletic.
Background on Paul Mullin
Mullin initially joined Wigan Athletic on a season-long loan last summer. However, his time with the League One club was cut short, as he was often left out of the matchday squad towards the end. Following his return to Wrexham, Mullin did not feature for his team due to restrictions that would prevent him from signing with another club before the January transfer window closed.
Move to Bradford City
Now, Mullin is set to bolster Bradford City’s attacking options as they aim for promotion from League One. Head coach Phil Parkinson expressed his satisfaction with Mullin’s transfer, stating, “We’re really pleased for Paul; it’s a good opportunity to be part of a team challenging at the top of the league.”
Recent Performance and Statistics
- 110 goals in 170 appearances for Wrexham
- Contributed to Wrexham’s historic three successive promotions from the National League to the Championship
- Last League One appearance for Wrexham was against Stevenage on January 28, where he scored
- Contract at Wrexham runs until summer 2027
- Scored five goals in 26 matches for Wigan Athletic
Mullin’s capabilities as a forward were crucial during his time at Wrexham. However, competition increased with the arrivals of Sam Smith and Jay Rodriguez, leading to his reduced role in the squad.
As Mullin embarks on this new chapter at Bradford City, he will look to make an immediate impact and help the team in their pursuit of promotion.
