Jordan Alexander Houghton (born 9 November 1995) is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Chelsea.

Club career

Chelsea

Houghton joined Chelsea's academy at Under-8 and has been with the club his entire career. In November 2014, he signed his first professional contract which will therefore keep him at the club until the end of the 2016–17 season.

Loan to Gillingham

On 20 July 2015, Houghton signed for League One side Gillingham on loan until 3 January 2016.[1][2] On 8 August 2015, he made his professional debut in a 4–0 home victory against Sheffield United, playing the full 90 minutes.[3] After establishing himself in the starting 11, Houghton scored his first professional goal in a 5–1 victory over Fleetwood Town on 29 September, also at Priestfield Stadium.[4]

On 2 January 2016, Houghton announced via his social media accounts that Gillingham had decided against extending his loan and that he would return to Chelsea after failing to impress under manager Justin Edinburgh.[5]

Loan to Plymouth Argyle

On 10 March 2016, Houghton signed for League Two side Plymouth Argyle on loan.[6] Two days later, he made his "Pilgrims" debut in a 2–1 away defeat to Accrington Stanley, playing the full 90 minutes.[7] On 25 March, he scored his first Plymouth goal in the 14th minute of a 2–0 away victory against Morecambe.[8]
