✅ City have signed centre forward Dom Ballard on a four-year deal from League One side Leyton Orient for an undisclosed fee. ✍️ 🗣️ Ballard: “I am really excited to get going and joining a big club like Bristol City. It is a club where I feel like I can really develop. I spoke to the gaffer and we are aligned on what he wants me to do so there are a lot of positives. Last year was unbelievable. I knew I was capable but to go out there and do it was big for me – especially as it was my third year in League One so I felt like it was time for me to push on. I want to be a Premier League player and the club wants to be a Premier League team, so the drive is there to do that.” 🗣️ Skubala: “We’re delighted to add Dom to our squad and we’re excited to see how he grows and what he can bring to our group. He performed exceptionally well last season and he’s a motivated and hard-working player. We feel this is a great opportunity for him to grow and develop with us and to fulfil his potential.” 🗣️ Ellis: “It’s brilliant to welcome Dom to Bristol City. To add more depth and quality to this area of the pitch is another step in the right direction for us. Along with our other front-line players, we now have options for Michael and his staff to have different approaches and selections where required in what will be a highly competitive season. Dom is only 21 years old and already has a proven record of scoring goals. He has a big future ahead of him and we’re excited to see how he develops over the coming years.” Welcome Dom 👊
