Former Swindon Town striker Jake Young looks to be set for a move to Fleetwood Town after Bradford City accepted an offer for him.

Young was an instant hit at Swindon during the first half of last season, striking up a fabulous partnership with Dan Kemp in the first half of the season as they combined for 32 goals and 12 assists, 77 per cent of Town’s goals, before being recalled by MK Dons and Bradford respectively in January.

Young then quickly picked up an injury upon his return to Valley Parade after failing to score in five appearances and he has only featured as a substitute against Grimsby Town in the Carabao Cup so far this season.

Following the Bantams' win over Bromley on Saturday, manager Graham Alexander revealed that Young could soon be on his way out of the club after an offer had been accepted for him.

He said to BBC West Yorkshire: “We have had a bid for Jake, it was yesterday morning and it has been accepted by the club, so it is down to Jake now to do what he sees fit and we will see how it goes.

“[Was that bid from a League One club?] No, it is a League Two club.”

There has been speculation across the summer of a potential reunion with Kemp at Stevenage and also with Michael Flynn at Cheltenham Town, but they appear to have been jumped in the queue for his signature by Fleetwood.

Football Insider’s Pete O’Rourke has said that the club Alexander was talking about was the Cod Army as they look to add more firepower after one win and two draws to start the season, scoring just three goals across those matches.

Swindon do not seem to have made a substantive approach for Young this summer, with The Moonraker having reported that one offer that was not accepted appeared to be beyond their financial capabilities.

Mark Kennedy has said that Swindon had multiple striking options being considered in recent weeks as they looked to add a fourth player in that department, which now looks to be Kabongo Tshimanga, who had been the preferred target across recent weeks.

Marcus Bignot said during pre-season that three strikers would not be enough for a side that plays with two up front and Swindon had been looking to address this but it would seem that Young was out of their reach and no substantive approach was made.
