Bradford City have confirmed the arrival of forward Will Swan from Crawley Town, for an undisclosed fee.
The Nottingham Forest academy product has signed an initial two-year deal which includes the option of a further 12 months.
Swan scored seven times and set up three goals in 37 League One appearances for relegated Crawley last season.
The 24-year-old will now remain in the third tier following his move to Bradford after Graham Alexander's side dramatically secured automatic promotion from League Two on the final day of last season.
"Everyone in football saw the scenes on the last day of the season, over 24,000 fans, those are the atmospheres you want to play in," Swan said.
"I have played at Valley Parade before and you can see how brilliant the support is and I am eager to get going."
Bantams boss Alexander said: "Adding Will to our attacking options is a real bonus for us. He can play anywhere along the front line, bringing others into play while giving us another goalscoring threat."
