Ryan Jones (born 23 May 2002) is an English footballer who plays as a defender or midfielder for Bath City on loan from Bristol Rovers.

Career[]

Jones broke through at Weston-super-Mare during the 2019–20 season, being named on the bench for a large proportion of fixtures. On 26 October 2019, Jones scored his first senior goal in a 3–2 FA Trophy defeat to AFC Totton. His goal in the 6th minute of extra time gave his side a 2–1 lead before Totton responded twice to win the match and progress.[1] His first league goal came in February 2020 with the fifth goal in a 5–0 thrashing of Wimborne Town.[2]

On 16 October 2020, Jones joined League One side Bristol Rovers for an undisclosed fee on a three-year deal before immediately being loaned back to Weston-super-Mare for the season.[3]

Jones enjoyed somewhat of a breakthrough pre-season heading into the 2021–22 season and on 10 August 2021, made his debut when he came off of the bench in a 2–0 EFL Cup defeat to Cheltenham Town.[4] He scored his first goal for the club in a 5–3 EFL Trophy defeat to Exeter City, also assisting his side's third goal.[5]

On 18 February 2022, Jones joined National League South side Bath City on a one-month loan deal,[6] making his debut the following day in a 2–0 defeat to Dartford.[7]
