Career

Bradford City

Mottley-Henry played youth football for Bradford City, joining the first-team in November 2014.[4] He made his senior debut for the club on 6 April 2015, appearing as a substitute in a league match.[5] In May 2015 he was one of four youth players offered professional contracts with the club.[6][7]

He moved on loan to Altrincham in January 2016,[8] making six appearances.[3] He joined Bradford Park Avenue on loan in February 2016, alongside Reece Webb-Foster.[9]

Barnsley

He was released by Bradford City at the end of the 2015–16 season.[10] He then went on trial with Barnsley in July 2016,[11] signing a six-month contract with them later that month.[12] He signed on loan for Tranmere Rovers in October 2017,[13] and for Chesterfield in January 2018.[14] He returned to Tranmere Rovers on loan in August 2018.[15] He moved on loan to Harrogate Town in February 2019.[16]

Return to Bradford City

After being released by Barnsley, Mottley-Henry re-signed for Bradford on a six-month contract on 30 January 2020.[17] He quickly became a first-team regular under new manager Stuart McCall.[18] He was released by the club on 30 April 2020,[19] although the club said he might still be part of their plans after the COVID-19 pandemic ended and league football resumed.[20] He was offered a new contract by Bradford City in July 2020,[21] and he signed for the club for a third time later that month on a one-year deal.[22] He said he appreciated McCall's faith in him, and that he wanted to become a first-team regular in the 2020–21 season.[23] He suffered an injury in a pre-season friendly.[24] On 31 January 2021 it was announced that he had left the club.[25]

Larne
