Notts County has made their first summer signing by acquiring Bradford City defender Matty Platt on a two-year contract. Platt, 26, joins the League Two club on a free transfer after spending two years with Bradford City. His previous experience includes three years at Barrow, where he helped the team win promotion back to the Football League Two in 2020.
Platt’s signing is seen as a positive move for Notts County, as he brings experience and a strong work ethic to the team. Richard Montague, who oversees recruitment for the club, expressed confidence in Platt’s abilities and believes he will fit well into the team’s style of play. Platt’s decision to join Notts County over other clubs is seen as a testament to the club’s vision and potential for growth.
Notts County finished 14th in League Two this season, with a disappointing run of results following the departure of manager Luke Williams to Swansea City. The club is looking to strengthen their squad for the upcoming season and believes that Platt’s arrival is a promising start to their summer transfer business. With his determination to improve and progress, Platt is seen as a player who can help Notts County reach new heights in the league.
