BRADFORD CITY defender Matty Platt has rejected fresh terms at the club and joined League Two rivals Notts County.
The 26-year-old, whose deal expires at the end of June, had been speaking with the Bantams regarding a new contract, with manager Graham Alexander having stressed his desire to keep him. But he has elected to leave at the termination of his deal and has agreed a move to Notts on a two-year contract. Platt has been a mainstay of the backline for the past two seasons after joining from Barrow in the summer of 2022.
In his three years at Barrow, Platt helped the Holker Street outfit to the National League title while on loan in 2020, before two years with the Bluebirds League Two. A product of the Blackburn Rovers academy, the centre-half previously spent a total of seven years at Ewood Park, also enjoying loan spells at Accrington Stanley and Southport.
