Steve McNamara will be unveiled as the new England coach tomorrow.
As reported in the T&A this morning, the Bulls boss is set to take up the role on a part-time basis, allowing him to see out the remainder of his contract at Odsal.
Initially Bradford had been reluctant to accept such an arrangement but had few options after McNamara made clear his intention to accept the Rugby Football League's offer.
With the 38-year-old's contract running until November, the club could have demanded compensation in exchange for an immediate release but are keen not to disrupt the progress they have already made this season.
The Bulls currently sit fifth in Super League and have won seven of their last 10 games in all competitions.
