Stuart McCall hopes Simon Whaley can add some width to his Bradford City side after signing the Norwich City winger on a month's loan.

The 24-year-old former Preston North End player has agreed a deal that will see him stay with the Bantams until January 2 after recently returning to Carrow Road after spending two months on loan with Rochdale.

McCall said: "I'd put him in the Omar Daley and Steve Jones category. He's right-footed but most of his success at Preston in the past was on the left.

"He has got a good pedigree from playing a lot in the Championship and at one stage there was talk of him going higher.

"Simon did really well at Rochdale and scored a terrific goal the other week in their win at Bournemouth. He's comfortable on both sides and hopefully he will be ideal for us."
