Bantams faces competition for Abu Kamara’s signature – Portsmouth staking waged player – Charlton breaking £16m bank

Bradford City are facing stiff competition in the race to sign highly-rated forward Abu Kamara, with Portsmouth and Charlton Athletic both emerging as serious contenders. Reports suggest Portsmouth are prepared to free up significant room on their wage bill by allowing a player earning around £35,000 per week to leave in a bid to finance a move for Kamara. Meanwhile, Charlton Athletic are reportedly ready to make a huge financial commitment, with suggestions they are willing to invest heavily after cashing in on a major £16 million transfer. The growing interest has intensified the battle for the sought-after attacker, whose performances have attracted attention across the EFL. Bradford remain determined to strengthen their squad and view Kamara as a key addition ahead of the new campaign. However, with rival clubs prepared to spend aggressively, securing his signature will be far from straightforward, setting up one of the summer’s most intriguing transfer battles.
