Omari Joshua Curtis Patrick (born 24 May 1996) is an English professional footballer who plays for Bradford City, as a winger and forward.

Patrick was born in Slough.[2] He trained at the FAB Academy and started his career in non-League with Beaconsfield SYCOB. He signed his first professional contract with Kidderminster Harriers and signed for his first EFL club with Barnsley, before moving to Bradford City a season later, where he made his Football League debut.

Career

Beaconsfield SYCOB

After leaving the FAB Academy, Patrick joined Beaconsfield SYCOB after having unsuccessful trials with Brentford, Barnet and Rangers. He scored on his debut against Bedford Town.[3] Whilst at the club he scored 14 goals in 49 matches over one and a half seasons,[4] and went on trial to Oxford United.[5]

Kidderminster Harriers

On 5 December 2015, Patrick signed a contract with National League side Kidderminster Harriers.<[6] He made his debut from the bench on the same day, against Gateshead.[2] At the end of the season, following Harriers' relegation and 18 appearances, Patrick was offered a new contract.[7]

Barnsley

Following an impressive trial for Barnsley U23s, during which he scored against Ipswich Town U23s, he signed a one-year contract with the club on 21 September 2016. He was initially assigned to the development squad.[8][9] He never made a first-team appearance for Barnsley.[10]

Bradford City

He signed a one-year contract with Bradford City in May 2017.[11] Following some "impressive" performances in pre-season friendlies, Patrick was praised by Bradford manager Stuart McCall.[12] He started the first game of the 2017–18 season, scoring the winning goal.[13][14] Following an "impressive start" to the season, Patrick signed a new three-year contract with the club in August 2017.[15]
