Career

Born in Haworth,[2] Webb-Foster played youth football for Bradford City,[3][4] where he was described as "prolific" and a "natural finisher" by the club's head of academy coaching Steve Thornber.[2]

He made his senior debut for the club on 23 September 2014, appearing as a substitute in a League Cup match.[5] He is one of the club's youngest ever players – his made his debut at the age of 16 years 200 days, which is 59 days older than the club's youngest ever player Robert Cullingford.[6] He made his league debut on 11 April 2015, again appearing as a substitute.[7]

He turned professional in November 2015, signing a contract until 2018.[8]

He joined Bradford Park Avenue on loan in February 2016, alongside Dylan Mottley-Henry.[9] He was recalled by Bradford City in April 2016, to rejoin their first-team squad.[10]

Ahead of the 2016–17 season, he joined the first team pre-season training for the first time.[2]

In September 2016, he moved on loan to Guiseley for one month,[11] after Bradford City manager Stuart McCall stated that he felt a loan move would "benefit his development."[12]

In October 2016 he signed a one-month loan deal with Harrogate Town.[13]
