Leeds United announced last night that they had loaned Bryce Hosannah to Bradford City.

The 21-year-old has joined the League Two side on a season-long loan from the Premier League new boys.

Hosannah is well known to Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa, who named him as one of the 16 players that travelled to Australia for a pre-season tour during the summer of 2019.

But at the age of 21, it’s time for Hosannah to experience regular, senior football.

Here’s how Leeds fans reacted to Victor Orta loaning him out:

The loan system can be great for young players and one Leeds youngster is already benefiting from it.

20-year-old Jordan Stevens scored on his debut for Swindon Town this past weekend – after only seven minutes.

That sets him up nicely for an excellent temporary spell away from Thorp Arch and, with a bit of luck, Hosannah will also dazzle for the Bantams.
