The loan deal for Joe White to join Bradford from Newcastle is confirmed, and an imminent transfer is expected in the other direction at Valley Parade.

According to The Mail's Craig Hope, Newcastle's Joe White and teammate Harrison Ashby are both in talks regarding a January move to Bradford City. The League One club is currently third in the table and is aiming for automatic promotion. White, 23, was recalled earlier this month from a loan spell at Leyton Orient, where he did not frequently start matches. He requires more playing time at a senior level as his Newcastle contract has 18 months remaining.
