Joshua Maxwell Coley (born 24 July 1998) is an English footballer who plays as a winger for National League club Sutton United.
Coley was born in Stevenage but grew up in York. He was in the youth team at York City before returning south.[2] Coley began his senior career in the Spartan South Midlands Football League with Arlesey Town Reserves, before moving on to Letchworth Garden City Eagles in the Herts Senior County League.[3]
In 2016 he joined Southern Football League side Hitchin Town. Coley only made a handful of appearances for the Canaries, and spent most of his time out on loan with Histon, Arlesey Town, Langford and Baldock Town,[4] where he scored 21 goals in all competitions in the 2017–18 season, combining non-league football with working as a bricklayer.[5]
After impressing in a trial, he signed a one-year deal with Norwich City in July 2018,[6] and featured regularly for their under-23 side, scoring once in twenty appearances. Coley's contract was extended for another year in February 2019.[7]
In June 2019, he joined Scottish Championship club Dunfermline Athletic on a year-long loan deal,[8] with his first appearance coming in a Scottish League Cup match with St Mirren where he played the full 90 minutes of his side's 3–2 victory.[9] Coley briefly returned to Norwich in January 2020,[10] before having his contract cancelled by mutual consent in February.[11] Shortly after, he signed for Spartan South Midlands Football League side Stotfold.[12]
In July 2020, Coley signed for National League side Maidenhead United.[13] On 12 October 2020, he scored his first goal for the club to give his side their first win of the season against Wrexham.[14]
On 8 June 2021, it was announced that Coley had signed for Exeter City on a two-year deal for an undisclosed fee.[15]
On 1 September 2022, he joined EFL League Two's Harrogate Town on loan until the end of the 2022–23 season.[16] Coley was recalled in January 2023.[17]
On 30 June 2023, Coley signed for League Two club Sutton United for an undisclosed fee.[18]
