The club are delighted to confirm that striker Dominic Poleon has today joined Reds from League One Bradford City on a two-year contract for an undisclosed fee.
Dominic, who can also play in wide areas, has played his career in the Championship and League One. The 24-year-old Londoner started his career at Leeds United, making his full debut against Nottingham Forest in 2012. He went on to make 29 appearances for the Whites over the next three seasons, scoring three goals. He also made loan spells in League One with Bury and Sheffield United.
Dominic left Leeds in 2014 and signed for Oldham Athletic, where he spent the next three seasons. He made 68 appearances for the Latics and scored 11 goals. During the 2014-15 campaign he twice played against Reds for Oldham as a substitute.
His next port of call was AFC Wimbledon in 2016 when he scored 13 times in 49 appearances. Last season for Bradford he scored seven goals in 37 games.
Head Coach Harry Kewell said: “We’re delighted to have Dom on board. He can play up front or wide and it is important to have players comfortable in more than one position in the squad and he fits the bill. I think he’s going to make a big impact in League Two. He’s got lots of pace, can score goals and we’re pleased to have got this deal done.”
Look out for the first interview with Dominic on the official website soon.
