Jake Joshua Burton (born 15 November 2001) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for National League North side Chester.

Playing career[edit]

Tranmere Rovers[edit]

Burton graduated through the academy at Tranmere Rovers, breaking into the first team squad alongside George Nugent and Kyle Hayde. He made his first team debut for the club in a 2–1 defeat to Leicester City F.C. Under-21's in the 2019–20 EFL Trophy,[2] and signed his first professional contract in July 2020.[3] He made his English Football League debut on 10 October 2020 starting in a match against Salford City.[4] He made one further league appearance that season, played in an FA Cup match and featured in Tranmere's losing 2021 EFL Trophy Final appearance against Sunderland on 14 March 2021.[5][6]

Burton returned from a loan spell for the start of the 2022-23 season, scoring in the clubs first pre-season friendly; a 2-2 draw against Fleetwood,[7] and appeared as a 65th minute substitute in the clubs 2nd pre-season friendly, a 1-0 victory over Preston North End.[8]

After a short loan spell at Marine, Burton was recalled prior to the visit of Colchester United & replaced Elliott Nevitt in the 80th minute of the game. He scored his first senior goal for the club after just 3 minutes on the pitch; latching on to a Paul Lewis cross to head home Tranmere's second goal of the game.[9]

Loan periods[edit]

In September 2021 he went on a month's loan to Stalybridge Celtic.[10] This loan was twice extended by a month each time until the end of the year.[11] He made 15 appearances for the club, including 11 in the Northern Premier League, scoring three goals.[12] He returned to the club towards the end of March 2022 for a second loan spell.[13]

Burton joined Marine A.F.C. at the start of the 2022–23 season, initially on loan until January 2023,[14] but was recalled after one month, having played in all 4 of Marine's league games; scoring twice.[15]

On 9 May 2023 Tranmere announced he was being released.[16]

He signed for Chester in July 2023[17] and rejoined Marine on loan in August.[18] He was recalled by Chester in October 2023.[19]
