Guiseley secure loan move for Bantams midfielder

29 heinä 2022 By James Gordon

Guiseley have announced the capture of young attacking midfielder Charlie Wood on loan from Bradford City.

The hugely-talented Bantams academy graduate will initially arrive at Nethermoor on loan until January 3.

The 19 year-old has figured in City’s pre-season games after signing a new deal at Valley Parade in June.

Wood made his professional debut in a Papa John’s Trophy game against Oldham Athletic in November 2020, before spending time on loan at non-league Ossett United last season.

He was instrumental as Martin Drury’s under-19s secured their first EFL Youth Alliance title in close to 10 years last season, scoring the second goal in a 2-0 victory at Grimsby Town which sealed the crown.

Wood was Academy Player of the Year in 2019-20 and captained the Under-18 side managed by former Guiseley player Mark Trueman.
