Career

[edit | edit source]

Potter came through the academy of Sheffield United, being rewarded with a scholarship deal in August 2020.[3] His deal started in unfortunate circumstances, missing eighteen months through injury before his return to action in February 2022.[4]

In February 2023, he joined National League club Barnet on loan for the remainder of the season.[5] Following a successful spell, he returned for a season-long loan ahead of the 2023–24 season,[6] being recalled in February 2024.[7]

On 1 February 2024, Potter joined League One club Fleetwood Town on an eighteen-month contract with the option for a further year.[8][9] He made his debut on the final day of the season, as already relegated Fleetwood won 3–0 against Burton Albion.[10]

On 7 May 2025, the club announced it had activated a one-year extension for the player.[11]

International career

In May 2022, Potter was called up to the England U18 squad, going on to win the Four Nations tournament.[12][13]
