Current Club

Old Rutlishians AFC

 

Centre Midfield

A central attacking midfielder, who’s equally comfortable as a striker, Jaiden excels at getting the ball to his feet and driving up the pitch. Able to bring his teammates into play with both long switches and close passing, he utilises his pace and dribbling, and is adept at getting in behind defenders. Demonstrates clinical finishing using both his height and both feet to finish. His ability to win headers in central areas of the pitch allow for effective flick-ons from both in-play and throw ins. Delivers accurate passes from both wide and central areas to teammates to finish and gather assists.

Jaiden is known for his blistering speed and quick acceleration, regularly exploiting space behind defenders to create goal-scoring opportunities. He is clinical in front of goal, capable of finishing with both feet or his head from various angles. His dribbling is effective at speed, using close control to glide past defenders and create chances. With an excellent sense of positioning, Jaiden always seems to be in the right place to receive passes or capitalize on loose balls in the box. While not overly physical, he uses agility and speed to avoid challenges and is improving at holding off defenders. As a playmaker, he’s developing vision and passing skills, especially in counter-attacks. Jaiden’s work rate is exceptional, pressing high up the pitch and harrying defenders and goalkeepers. He’s competent in aerial duels and can score headers from quick crosses. His personality reflects his drive: ambitious, focused, and always looking to improve. He remains resilient in tough situations, working hard and staying patient after setbacks. A team player, Jaiden understands the importance of creating chances for others and tracking back defensively. Confident yet humble, he seeks advice from experienced players and respects the game. His dynamic, versatile playing style shines in transition, whether operating as a lone striker or in a partnership, making him a constant threat on counter-attacks. Though still refining his dribbling, Jaiden’s pace allows him to beat defenders and create space for shots or passes. Defensively, he plays a key role in the team’s pressing system, often forcing mistakes and creating more goal-scoring opportunities.
— Jax Broom - Chipstead FC First Team Coach
Jaiden has been a valued member of our football team for the past 3 years. As his Coach, I have had the pleasure of witnessing Jaiden’s growth both as an athlete and as a person. His enthusiasm and passion for the game set him apart as a great player. Jaiden has a unique blend of skill, athleticism, and powerful running. As a forward on our team, he consistently demonstrates outstanding ball control, shooting abilities, and the ability to read the game. His quickness and agility make him a constant threat on the pitch. Jaiden’s contributions have been instrumental in our team’s success, often stepping up in crucial moments to either create scoring opportunities or finish off chances. I have no doubt that Jaiden would be an asset to your football program. His combination of talent, determination, and maturity will make him an excellent addition to your team and a strong student-athlete. I wholeheartedly recommend Jaiden without reservation and look forward to seeing him continue to excel in his athletic and academic pursuits.
— Michael Faulkner - Old Rutlishians U18s Manage
I’ve had the pleasure of managing Jaiden in the first team this season. He has been an excellent member of the squad and has carried on from last season, where he proved as the youngest player he was more than ready for adult football. Off the pitch Jaiden is a very polite and respectful lad who you would struggle not fit in with.

On the pitch Jaiden has made sure he is one of the first names on the team sheet and is respected by all those around him much older. He is strong and vocal and has had to fit into a number of positions across the midfield and frontline. Despite being asked to play different roles he steps up each time with the skillset needed at the time. He’s extremely comfortable on the ball, often wanting it in any small space on the pitch. He’s a very powerful and direct runner with and without the ball. Comfortably beating players when required before showing a great amount of composure to find the right pass or take on the shot when needed.

Despite being amongst the youngest in the team the older players and captain will regularly defer to Jaiden on set pieces as he’s proved he has a great freekick whether that’s a shot or delivery into the box. Jaiden has played far beyond his years whenever he has played for the Old Ruts 1st team. The one comment that keeps coming up amongst the Management team and senior players is that despite our desire for him to remain with us he has more than enough ability to be playing a much higher level of football.
