About the player
Nathan Baxter spent seventeen years at Chelsea without playing a league game for the first team. He arrived at the academy in 2006, aged eight, from Cray Wanderers, and left in 2023.
His early success came in the 2015–16 season, when Chelsea's youth side won both the FA Youth Cup and the UEFA Youth League. What followed was a long run of loans. Metropolitan Police, Solihull Moors and Woking came first. Yeovil Town followed in 2018–19, and it was there that Baxter was named both Player of the Season and Young Player of the Season.
Ross County gave him a season in 2019–20, and Accrington Stanley had him the year after. He then spent two consecutive seasons on loan at Hull City, from 2021 to 2023. Baxter has represented England at youth level but has no senior caps.
The move that ended the loan cycle came in June 2023, when he joined Bolton Wanderers on a free transfer. He played 59 league games for the club over two seasons.
In June 2025 he signed for Watford, again on a free transfer, with the deal taking effect on 1 July. He made seven league appearances there. In July 2026 he moved on to Leyton Orient on a two-year contract running to June 2028, and by September he had played five league matches for the club.
