Biographical Text

Jayden Richardson, from Nottingham Forest, spent the 2019/20 season on loan with Exeter City. After his release from Forest in 2022 he moved to Aberdeen. 

Jayden became a Nottingham Forest trainee/scholar in 2017 and turned professional in April 2019. As a new professional, without a first-team appearance, he joined Exeter City on loan in August 2019 making his debut at Oldham Athletic on 20 August 2019. Although never a regular starter Jayden appeared in twenty-eight league and cup games during the season including playing the whole game against Northampton Town at Wembley on 29 June 2020. He scored twice for the Grecians - against Oldham on 11 February 2020 and in the home play-off semi-final against Colchester on 22 June 2020.

After his time at City, Jayden was to go on loan to Forest Green Rovers (2020/21) and Notts County (2021/22). Having made two league substitute appearances for Forest, and starting two League Cup ties, he left to sign for Aberdeen on a three-year deal in June 2022. Making nineteen league appearances during his first season at Pittodrie, he was loaned to Stockport County ahead of the 2023/24 season (where he mainly featured as a substitute) and to Colchester United in January 2024.
