Jordan William Holsgrove (born 10 September 1999) is a Scottish-Malaysian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Primeira Liga club Estoril.

Club career

Reading

Born in Edinburgh while his father was representing Hibernian, Holsgrove returned to England a few months later, and was a Reading youth graduate. On 13 February 2017, he signed his first professional contract with the club. On 26 February 2019, after already becoming a regular with the club's under-23 squad, he agreed to a new deal until 2021.

On 27 August 2019, after spending the pre-season with the first team, Holsgrove was loaned to Spanish Segunda División B side CD Atlético Baleares on a season-long deal. He made his senior debut on 1 September, coming on as a second-half substitute for Marc Rovirola in a 1–0 home win against UD Las Palmas Atlético.

Holsgrove scored his first senior goal on 3 November 2019, netting ATB's third in a 3–1 home success over Real Oviedo Vetusta. He returned to the Royals in July 2020, despite Atlético Baleares attempting to extend his loan deal to cover for the play-offs, as the season was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Celta

On 10 September 2020, Holsgrove signed a permanent two-year contract with La Liga side RC Celta de Vigo, being initially assigned to the reserves also in the third division. After impressing with the B-side, he made his first team debut on 5 January 2021; after replacing Lautaro De León in the 81st minute, he scored his side's second in a 2–5 Copa del Rey away loss against UD Ibiza.

Holsgrove made his debut in the Spanish top tier on 8 January 2021, replacing Miguel Baeza at half-time in a 0–4 home loss against Villarreal CF.

Paços de Ferreira

On 27 June 2022, Paços de Ferreira announced the signing of Holsgrove. On 27 July 2023, Holsgrove announced his departure from Paços de Ferreira.

Olympiacos

On 28 July 2023, Olympiacos announced the signing of Holsgrove, with his immediate loan out to Estoril.

International career

He was part of the Scotland under-20 team that won bronze medal at 2017 Toulon Tournament, the nations first ever medal at the competition.

Personal life

Holsgrove hails from a family of footballers. His father Paul was also a midfielder, while his uncle Lee and his grandfather John were both defenders.
