Overview

• Multiple outlets citing transfer journalist Matteo Moretto report the 32-year-old is very close to joining Getafe on a free.
• Reports say the parties aimed to finalise terms this week, with Bamford preparing to fly to Madrid to complete the move.
• Because he is unattached, Bamford can be registered despite Spain’s transfer window having closed.
• Getafe seek cover up front after Christantus Uche moved to Crystal Palace and with leading scorer Adrian Liso potentially unavailable, leaving Borja Mayoral as the sole natural No. 9.
• Bamford departed Leeds this summer after Daniel Farke said he was not in his plans, following a season of fitness issues and no goals in 17 Championship appearances.
