Hartlepool United are thrilled to welcome back Brad Walker.

The 29-year old midfielder signs following expiration of his current contract with Tranmere Rovers, after having made over 150 EFL appearances since his last spell with Pools, where he rose through the Club’s academy to compete on 123 occasions in blue and white.

Upon signing, Brad said:

“I am over the moon to be back. As soon as I heard of the interest, it was a no brainer. This is home for me and my family and I’m excited to put the shirt on again. I can’t wait to get going.”

Upon making his first signing, Pools Manager Simon Grayson said:

“I’m Delighted to have signed Brad. He’s a player who loves this Club, from starting out as a fan to making his debut. Ultimately, he’s a very good and versatile footballer who will add experience to the group after playing so much in the EFL.”
