23 year-old defender or midfield player who joined United on a permanent deal in September 2020 for his third spell at the club having last joined in November 2019 on dual registration from Wealdstone, four years after originally arriving on a youth loan from Reading where he was a second year scholar.

Jake was originally a full-back but seems to have found his niche as a midfielder since leaving Reading for Wealdstone in the summer of 2018. He has a lot of pace and is a powerful, no nonsense player who whips crosses in and has added goalscoring to his game as well.

He has also had loan spells with Guisley and Dagenham & Redbridge while at Reading.

Has represented Scotland at under-17 level, scoring on his debut against Belgium with his first touch and at under-21 level.
