After moving to the UK to attend the International Academic and Soccer Academy, Wells unerwent a trial with Carlisle United in November 2010,[5] his second with the club.[6] Before moving to the UK, Well has sought the advice of compatriot Shaun Goater.[7] In December 2010, it was announced that Wells would sign for Carlisle United on 1 January 2011.[8] Wells made his debut for Carlisle on 15 January 2011, in a Football League game against Bristol Rovers.[9]

In March 2011, Wells publicly announced his wish to play at Wembley Stadium with Carlisle in the 2011 Football League Trophy Final, to be played in April.[10] However, Wells didn't even make the matchday squad, as Carlisle beat Brentford 1-0.[11]

On 3 May 2011, it was announced that Wells' contract with Carlisle would not be renewed at the end of the season.[12][13]

In late June 2011, Wells went on trial with Bradford City alongside four other players.[14][15] He signed a one-year contract with Bradford City on 22 July 2011.[16][17]
