We are pleased to announce striker Ben Andreucci has committed his future at the Club, until the end of the 2026-27 season.
Andreucci, joined Bradford (Park Avenue) in January 2026 following a spell at Cleethorpes Town. The 21 year old played an important role to help secure Bradford’s place in the top five and is fondly remembered for scoring a memorable goal in the Playoff Semi-Final at Matlock Town to send Avenue to the Playoff Final.
The clinical forward started his career as a youngster at Doncaster Rovers before moving to Leeds United where he matured into the player he is today. Because of his undoubted qualities, Andreucci was snapped up by EFL side Bolton Wanderers on a two-year contract, making his senior debut against Wrexham in the EFL Trophy. During that time, Andreucci had a couple of loan spells with Buxton, where he played for current Bradford boss Craig Elliott, and Darlington.
Impressively, Andreucci has received international honours, representing Scotland Under 19s. Following his release from Bolton Wanderers, the striker joined Cleethorpes Town for the 2025-26 season.
In January 2026, Andreucci made the move back to West Yorkshire and instantly made an impact for BPA, with a brace against Matlock Town on his debut. He added another four goals to his tally for the 2025-26 season, quickly becoming a fans favourite with the Green Army.
Speaking on his commitment to the Club, Andreucci is pleased to secure his future:
“I’m delighted to return for another year. The aim for the season is clear and I’m looking forward to getting started again. I’ve really enjoyed my time at BPA, since joining in January, and we will give everything to get this Club promoted next season.”
Having worked with the talented striker at Buxton, manager Craig Elliott can’t wait to work with Andreucci again:
“Ben joined us lacking in confidence, but he slowly got sharper and showed why I rate him so highly. He scored some vital goals last season but I think with a good pre-season, he can push on and continue to improve. I have no doubt he could score 20+ goals for us, next season.”
Everyone at the Club welcomes Ben back to the Horsfall Community Stadium, and hopefully we’ll see more of his famous celebrations in the green and white jersey in the future!
