Bradford City currently find themselves firmly in a promotion hunt in League Two this season, looking to bounce back from relegation last season.

Gary Bowyer recruited smartly in the summer, looking to bring in a blend of youth and experience to strengthen in key areas at both ends of the pitch as they mount a charge for automatic promotion. The Bantams currently find themselves just five points behind first-placed Swindon Town, but with a game in hand on them.

The January transfer window will provide many clubs with the chance to add something extra to their squad in the hope of revitalising their season or consolidating their position. Bradford's situation is no exception as they aim to break into the top three in the coming months.

Here, we take a look at three transfer scenarios that could play out at Bradford in January...

With the injury lay-off to Clayton Donaldson recently, it could be worth Bowyer searching for a new forward this January in the hope that they can fire their way to promotion.

They loaned out Eoin Doyle to Swindon and he has 18 for the season, while Bradford's three main forwards have 12 between them.

The signing of Chris Taylor on a short-term deal did well to plug an alarming gap in midfield recently, but there is still a shortage in midfield, especially given the injuries that keep piling up there.

Bowyer could move to bring in someone who guarantees regular starts in the league.

With the injuries to full-backs and lack of width in the side, we could see Bowyer look to strengthen the Bantams' wide options to give the side more versatility heading into the second half of the season.

He operated with a somewhat unfamiliar three-at-the-back setup last time out and this outlined their lack of depth in wide positions.
