Bradford (Park Avenue) is thrilled to announce that right-back Kareem Hassan-Smith and left-back Dan Francis have committed to the club, signing contracts that will keep them at Horsfall Community Stadium until the end of the season.
We’d like to say a huge thank you to the BPA Development Fund for their help in getting these contracts over the line.
Both players have showcased their quality and professionalism since joining the club, and their performances on the pitch have been pivotal in strengthening the squad’s defensive solidity and attacking capabilities from the flanks.
Kareem Hassan-Smith
Kareem, a dynamic and versatile right-back, has made an immediate impact with his robust defensive skills and ability to contribute to the attack. With his pace and tenacity, he has proven to be a reliable presence down the right-hand side, consistently delivering solid performances against tough opposition. Kareem has already made 18 appearances for the First Team, scoring once.
Dan Francis
On the opposite flank, Dan Francis has been a revelation for Avenue since joining this season. Known for his attacking flair and defensive composure, Dan has also brought a wealth of experience from his time playing in Germany and representing Sierra Leone at the international level. Dan has already made appearances in all 19 of our fixtures, scoring 5 times.
With both full-backs now secured, Bradford (Park Avenue) is reinforcing its intentions to compete at the highest level in the Northern Premier League East Division. Fans can look forward to seeing Kareem and Dan in action as they continue to play a crucial role in Avenue’s quest for promotion.
