Leeds-born
Dyman Mottley-Henry has made the switch from Vanarama National League North
side Bradford Park Avenue for an undisclosed fee.
Mottley-Henry,
who has mainly been deployed on the right-wing during his career but can also play
on the left or through the middle of the attack, began his career in the
academy of Bradford City.
Renowned
for his pace, he made his first-team debut for Bradford as a 17-year-old
against Preston North End in 2015.
After
two senior appearances and furthering his experience with loan spells at
Altrincham and Bradford Park Avenue, Mottley-Henry was snapped up by Barnsley
in the summer of 2016 after a successful trial.
He
had four loan stints during his time with Barnsley, twice spending time with
Tranmere Rovers and also representing Chesterfield and Harrogate Town.
It
was at Tranmere he built the bulk of his first-team experience, playing 16
times in all competitions in 2017/18 as the club won promotion from the
National League, and 17 times the following season, with Rovers claiming a
second successive promotion.
Mottley-Henry
made one senior appearance for Barnsley before his departure in January 2020,
when he re-joined Bradford.
His
second spell in claret and amber saw more first-team opportunities, with the
winger making 26 appearances in a year with the League Two side.
Larne
in Northern Ireland was Mottley-Henry’s next destination in February 2021, and
he spent the remainder of that season with the top-flight Irish club.
He
returned to Bradford Park Avenue, this time on a permanent basis, in September
2021 and he appeared 28 times and scored 3 goals last season, and contributed a
significant number of assists. |
