Joshua Luke Gordon (born 10 October 1994) is an English professional footballer who plays as a striker for EFL League Two club Walsall.[2]

Career

[edit]

Gordon played youth football for his hometown club Stoke City but was released as a sixteen-year-old.[3] He eventually joined the junior ranks at Newcastle Town before making his way through the age groups to the first team playing in the Evo-Stik Division One South.[4][5] He combined his early non-league football career with playing basketball, before giving up the latter to focus on football.[6]

A spell at Nantwich Town followed before he moved to Welsh club Rhyl in February 2016.[7] He made just one league appearance for Rhyl before returning to Nantwich.[2]

After a successful spell with Stafford Rangers, where he scored 11 times in the 2016–17 season, he earned a move to reigning Premier League Champions Leicester City in April 2017.[3][8]

Having failed to break into the first team at Leicester, Gordon signed for Walsall in August 2018.[9][10] He scored his first professional goal in an EFL Cup tie with Macclesfield Town on 28 August 2018.[11]

Gordon won Walsall's 2019–20 Player of the Season award, after finishing as top scorer with 12 goals for the club.[12] He was offered a new contract by Walsall in November 2020, which he rejected.[13]

On 16 June 2021 it was announced that Gordon would transfer to Barrow at the end of the month, after failing to agree a new contract with Walsall.[14] He was one of three Barrow players to be offered a new contract at the end of the 2022–23 season.[15]

On 19 June 2023, Gordon was announced to be joining League One club Burton Albion on a two-year deal having rejected the offer of a new Barrow contract.[16][17]

In January 2024, Gordon returned to former club Walsall on loan until the end of the season.[18][19] He scored his first goal back, and only goal of the season, in a 3-1 win over Doncaster Rovers.[20]

On 1 July 2024, Gordon returned to Walsall on a permanent basis, signing a two-year deal.[21][22] He scored his first goal of the season in a 4-0 win against Swindon Town.[23]

Personal life

[edit]

Gordon studied for a university degree alongside his non-league career, earning a BA (Hons) in Sports Development and Coaching from the University of Staffordshire.[6][24]
