Midfielder Paul McLaren became Stuart McCall's second capture of the week when he signed a 2-year deal with the Bantams on Tuesday.

The 31-year old, released by Tranmere Rovers at the end of last season, follows close on the heels of Graeme Lee who put pen-to-paper on Monday.

McLaren began his career at Luton Town in 1993 and stayed with the Hatters until 2001.

He then joined Sheffield Wednesday where he made over 90 appearances for the Owls before moving to Rotherham United.

Paul linked up again with former boss Ronnie Moore at Tranmere Rovers in the summer of 2006 and in his debut season at the centre of the Rovers midfield McLaren started 42 of Tranmere's 46 games in the Coca-Cola League One, and a further 43 last season.
