O'Leary extends his stay

Posted on: Tue 02 Feb 2010

Steven O'Leary has today tied himself down to the Bantams until the end of the season after signing a fresh contract extension.

The Irish midfielder only signed a new short term deal a month ago, but that was due to expire this week.

O'Leary's new contract will now see him stay at the Coral Windows Stadium until at least the end of this current campaign and allow him to focus on gaining a place in Stuart McCall's starting line up.

He is now fully recovered from the fractured toe that had put a halt on his Bantams career and was named among the substitutes for City's match at Torquay United last weekend.

The former Luton and Hereford midfielder originally signed for the Bantams on a six month deal back in August after impressing while on trial with the club.

He made his full debut for Bradford in City's first home match of the season against Port Vale, but broke down injured in the warm up for the following match with Lincoln and had to pull out of the starting line up.

O'Leary hasn't featured since for the Bantams, but was given a further one month deal to enable him to prove his fitness at the turn of the year.

With O'Leary's month contract due to expire this Wednesday, McCall moved quickly to sort out the Irishman's future with the Bantams.

O'Leary will now be in contention for Bradford's weekend match with Bury at Valley Parade.
