Callum Damian Peter Morton (born 19 January 2000) is an English professional footballer who plays as a striker for EFL League Two club Bristol Rovers.

Morton began his career with the youth team of Yeovil Town, before signing for West Bromwich Albion.

He returned to Fleetwood on a permanent contract in 2022, but left after six months to sign for Salford.

Career

[edit | edit source]

Born in Torquay, England,[3] Morton joined the youth academy of Yeovil Town in 2015 signing a two-year scholarship in February 2016.[4] In January 2017, after scoring against them the previous month in Yeovil's 3–2 FA Youth Cup victory,[5] Morton signed for West Bromwich Albion for an undisclosed fee.[6]

In January 2020, Morton joined Northampton Town on loan.[7] In June 2020 he won the EFL League Two Play-offs with Northampton; he scored twice in the semi-final second leg against Cheltenham Town to help them overturn a 2–0 first leg deficit, and then scored once in the final as they defeated Exeter City 4–0.[8][9]

On 4 September 2020, it was announced that Morton, alongside West Brom teammate Alex Palmer, had joined Lincoln City on loan for the season.[10][11] He made his debut for Lincoln the next day, coming off the bench in the first round of the EFL Cup.[12] In the following round he would score his first goal for Lincoln in a 5–0 win over Bradford City.[13] On 25 September, it was announced that Morton had suffered a shoulder injury and would miss a number of games.[14] On 3 November 2020, Lincoln stated that Morton's injury had not improved as much as hoped, and that surgery might be required.[15] In January 2021 it was announced that his recovery was nearing its end and that it was hoped he would be available to play in February.[16] He would return to action on 2 March 2021, coming off the bench against Fleetwood Town and scoring a goal.[17]

He moved on loan to Fleetwood in July 2021.[18] After scoring seven goals in twenty-two appearances in all competitions, Morton was recalled by West Brom on 8 January 2022.[19] On 13 January, Morton joined Championship side Peterborough United on loan for the remainder of the 2021–22 season.[20][21]

In June 2022 it was announced that he would return to Fleetwood on a permanent contract on 1 July, signing a three-year contract for an undisclosed transfer fee.[22]

On 13 January 2023, Morton signed a two-and-a-half-year contract with League Two side Salford City.[23][24] He moved on loan to Forest Green Rovers in September 2023.[25] The loan ended in January 2024.[26]

On 4 July 2024, Morton returned to Northampton Town on a season-long loan deal.[27][28] He suffered a serious knee injury against Wrexham in October 2024, which ruled him out for the rest of the 2024–25 season.[29][30]

On 28 November 2025, Morton joined League Two club Bristol Rovers on a short-term deal.[31][32]
