Paul McLaren (born 17 November 1976, High Wycombe) is a footballer, who plays as a midfielder for Bradford City.

Career

He began his career as a trainee for Luton Town playing over 160 games over eight seasons. He left Luton to step up a Division for Sheffield Wednesday where he played 96 games and scored six goals. He was released however, by Chris Turner after failure to gain promotion to The Championship. He has since played for Rotherham United F.C. under Ronnie Moore and in the 2006–07 close season signed a two-year for Moore's new club Tranmere Rovers having been released by Rotherham. In his debut season at the centre of the Rovers midfield McLaren started 42 of Tranmere's 46 games in League One, and a further 43 the following season.

He is a central midfielder, with an excellent assist record, he got 13 during the 2007–08 season. This is mainly due to his excellent passing and set piece ability.

He turned down a new contract offer from Tranmere, and instead, on 1 July 2008, McLaren signed a two-year deal with League Two club Bradford City. [cite news
