Evans poised to rejoin Bradford
Paul Evans
Evans has made 447 league appearances for seven clubs
Midfielder Paul Evans is set to rejoin Bradford City for a second spell later this week.

The 32-year-old Wales international has been training at Valley Parade - where he played between 2002 and 2004 - after spending last season with Swindon.

Robins boss Paul Sturrock had offered him the chance to prove his fitness and earn a new deal, but Evans has instead opted for a return to the north.

"My aim all along was to get a contract here," he told the Telegraph & Argus.

"I've had a few offers from other clubs, and one wanted me to sign straight away.

"But as soon as I had a chat with the gaffer (Stuart McCall) and Wayne Jacobs, I knew I wanted to be here again."

Evans made 42 league appearances in his first two-season spell at Bradford.

But his year at Swindon was disrupted by injuries, and he has not played since Christmas 2006.
