Ex-Livingston boss David Hopkin to hold more talks with Bradford City over taking charge at Valley Parade
The former Chelsea star has held initial talks with the Yorkshire club and is set to make a decision when he returns from holiday
DAVID HOPKIN will fly back from his family holiday to hold more talks about becoming the new Bradford City boss.
The former Bantams star has already spoken to the Valley Parade club about the vacancy after leading Livingston back to the Premiership.
Bradford’s German owners were impressed by the way Hopkin did that on a tight budget and want him to do something similar for them.
But the free agent wanted time to consider his options after also speaking to Carlisle and Shrewsbury.
Meanwhile, former Rangers star Kenny Miller has refused to rule out the possibility of taking on a player-manager role at Livi.
