CITY IN FOR ROCHE

Last updated : 21 May 2003 By Editor

Bradford City are interested in buying young right back Lee Roche. Roche is out of contract in the summer and could use this as an opportunity to get regular first team football. Bradford chairman Gordon Gibb said:

"To sign Lee would be great news,"

"These young lads have been brought up with the right values at a club like Manchester United and, though they may still be young, they are experienced in playing at a higher level and with better players.

"Lee wants to play regular first team football and he sees that he has an opportunity to do that here with us,"

"He does not believe that he will have much of a chance to break through into the United first team, and we are in the market for a right-sided defender because Gus has left us."
