Norwich City transfer news: Jonathan Tomkinson joins Bradford City

The Canaries were made to wait for confirmation of the deal from the EFL after submitting paperwork late on deadline day, but the relevant authorities have now approved the move.

Tomkinson had seen another League Two loan fall through earlier in the window, but will spend the season with Mark Hughes’ side after recovering from an injury sustained in pre-season.

The 21-year-old has made three senior appearances for Norwich, and spent the second half of last season on loan with Stevenage in the fourth tier.

He told official Bradford club channels of the transfer: “I am really excited to be here. This is a big opportunity for myself. I am looking forward to playing some games and hopefully chasing promotion. 

“It has been a hectic few days but when I got the call saying Bradford City were interested it was an offer I could not refuse. This is a club with big ambitions, and I want to play in important games.

“I have always considered myself a ball-playing centre-back. I am comfortable on the ball and not afraid to step in and pass through the lines. 

“I am looking forward to getting started. I will give my all for the club. I am really excited to be here and I think we will go big places.”

Bantams manager Hughes added: “We are pleased to have brought Jonathan in, and wish him a warm welcome to the club.

“Jon is a strong centre-half with different sides to his game who, after we tried to get a deal for him done on deadline day, we are now delighted to finally have with us.

“As well as having the physical attributes to compete at this level, his experience in League Two with promoted Stevenage last year – and over in the USA – make him a cultured footballer with a versatile skillset.

“We are looking forward to getting him started in claret and amber, and I am sure he is looking forward to playing in front of you all.”
