Career

Born in Stockport, England, Jones started his football career at his local team Ruthin Town, before moving to Bala Town and then Wrexham in 2017. He joined the Huddersfield Town Academy in September 2019, before signing a professional contract in October 2020.[3] Because the transfer was across the England–Wales border, Jones had to wait for international clearance before joining the club, which came in January 2020.[4]

Jones made his senior debut for Huddersfield Town on 9 January 2021, starting in their 3–2 FA Cup Third Round defeat to Plymouth Argyle, before being replaced by Rolando Aarons.[5]

He has played for Wales' Under-17 side.[4]
