One in, one out at Bradford City

Former Charlton Athletic defender Matt Taylor has signed for Bradford City.

The 31-year-old has put pen to paper on a two-year contract at Valley Parade.

Meanwhile, centre-back Michael Nelson, 33, has left the Bantams to join Hibernian for an undisclosed fee.

Bradford manager Phil Parkinson told reporters: "Matt is a good signing for us. He played a key role in the Charlton side that got promoted to the Championship a couple of seasons ago and was part of a successful Exeter side before that.

"He's a good age for a centre-half and he's a winner. I'm sure the supporters will enjoy watching him play because he gives it his all.

"Nelse had the opportunity to go back up to Scotland, but I needed both deals to work before either one could go through."

Bradford will begin their League One campaign on Saturday with a trip to Bristol City.
