About the player
Edward Francis came through Manchester City's academy from the age of six.
His career gathered pace once he dropped into the National League. At Harrogate Town he was part of the side that won the FA Trophy in 2019–20, then had a settled two-year spell at Notts County. A loan at Gateshead in 2023 turned into a permanent deal, and he helped the club lift the FA Trophy again in 2023–24.
