Bradley re-joins AFC Fylde

AFC Fylde have rolled back the clock to sign attacker Dan Bradley from Kidderminster Harriers for an undisclosed fee.
Bradley rejoins the Coasters on a deal that will run until the end of the 2021 season, following his departure in August 2017 for family reasons.
Bradley was integral in Fylde's Vanarama National League North winning side in the 2016/17 season,bagging 18 league goals whilst playing a crucial part in Danny Rowe's record breaking 47 goal campaign.
The attacker rejoins following a successful spell at 46 appearances for the Harriers, where he scored 17 times.
Following the injury to Mason Bloomfield, and expirations of loan deals of Jim Kellermann and Danny Williams, incomings were certainly a priority for Coasters Manager Dave Challinor.
“It's brilliant to get him back,” said a delighted Dave Challinor. “Once we knew we could get him it
was a no brainer for me.”
“We think he has all of the attributes to be a success at this level, and he knows his role in this
team.”
“The big thing is that he can play wide, as a central striker, he can play from deeper, in a 2 or a 3.
He's got great energy and a fantastic foil for Danny Rowe, as he showed in his season with us.”
“The fans love him, and I'm sure he'll hit the ground running.”
Bradley initially joined the Coasters back in 2016 from Alfreton Town for what was then the club's
record transfer fee.
His appearances in a Fylde shirt made him a fan favourite in the title-winning season, and his
return will no doubt be a popular one both with the squad and fans alike.
“I am delighted as I know is Chally,” said Chairman David Haythornthwaite. “We never wanted to
let Dan go in the first place but at the time felt it was in the best interests of the player and club.”
“We have talked about him many times since and always said that if circumstances changed we
would have him back in a heartbeat.”
“Dan's situation, fortunately for us, has now changed and this means he will now be moving up to
the area with his family and will in turn become an integral part of the Coasters family as we push
for promotion.”
Dan Bradley goes straight into the squad for this Saturday's National League game against promotion contenders Wrexham, where he is in line to make his second debut.
