Stevenage have signed Bradford striker Jake Young for an undisclosed fee and Norwich City forward Ken Aboh on a season-long loan.

Young, 23, scored four goals in 18 games in his two years with the Bantams.

He steps up to League One, having impressed on loan at fourth-tier Swindon Town last season, scoring 16 goals between August and November.

Aboh, 19, made his senior debut for Norwich as a substitute in last season's 5-0 home win over Rotherham United, but has not featured since.

He scored 36 goals in 77 games for Norwich's youth teams.

Meanwhile, striker Jordan Roberts has agreed a contract extension with the League One club.

The 30-year-old scored 10 league goals when Stevenage won promotion to the third tier under former boss Steve Evans in 2023.

He joined the previous year following a spell with Motherwell and has made 109 appearances in total, scoring 19 goals.
