 Ricketts has kept 32 clean sheets in 118 appearances for Bradford |
Bradford City goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts' proposed move to Queens Park Rangers has collapsed. QPR were unable to gain a work permit for the Jamaican international and his existing permit cannot be transferred.
Ricketts has now returned to Bradford, where he remains under contract until the end of the season.
Bantams joint chairman Mark Lawn told BBC Radio Leeds: "We were assured it would go through OK. It's been a real kick in the stomach and to the wallet."
Ricketts now faces a fight for his place after the Bantams signed Scott Loach from Watford on loan for the rest of the campaign.
