Shrewsbury Town interested in Bradford City striker

The 33-year-old has made 18 appearances in west Yorkshire this season - scoring twice. 

Salop are on the hunt for reinforcements, and it is understood they are aiming to bring in forward players to provide competition for John Marquis and George Lloyd. 

Town want to bring Oliver to Shropshire before the window closes, but despite both parties being interested in a deal, it is understood nothing has been agreed yet. 

Oliver, who came through the youth ranks at Sheffield Wednesday, had his most prolific spell at Gillingham in 2020/21 when they were in the third tier of English football, where he made 50 appearances across all competitions scoring 20 goals. 

The following season he scored 11 goals in 43 games before he moved to Bradford in the summer of 2022. 

His time at Valley Parade has never got going, and he went out on loan last campaign in January when he joined Stevenage, where he made 14 appearances. 

Town's frontmen have been in good form themselves, both Marquis and Lloyd scored goals on Saturday as 10-man Town came from behind to beat Mansfield. 

Marquis has been given the armband since Gareth Ainsworth's arrival, and five of the eight goals he has netted in his 28 appearances in Shropshire have come under the boss. 

Lloyd on the other hand, has scored twice under the former Wycombe manager.
