Joe White, a 23-year-old attacking midfielder, played for Leyton Orient during the first half of this season, making appearances in four League One matches.
“We’ve been keeping an eye on Joe for quite some time, and we’re convinced that his creativity will add a new dimension to our squad,” stated Bradford manager Graham Alexander.
“Harrison brings valuable Championship experience and high-quality performance.”

White made four substitute appearances in the Premier League for Eddie Howe’s squad in 2024 and spent the entirety of last season on loan at Milton Keynes Dons in League Two, where he netted six goals in 35 games.
Ashby has yet to feature in a senior match for Newcastle since joining from West Ham United in 2023, where he participated in their successful Europa Conference League campaign.
