Ollie Dewsbury (born 22 February 2008) is a Welsh footballer who plays as a forward for EFL League One club Bristol Rovers.

Early life

Career

[edit]

Dewsbury joined Bristol Rovers at pre-academy level aged seven.[3] On 4 November 2023, Dewsbury made his senior debut as a late substitute in a 7–2 FA Cup First Round victory over Whitby Town,[4] having previously impressed first-team interim manager Andy Mangan in an FA Youth Cup tie.[5] At the age of 15 years and 255 days, he became the second youngest player to ever represent the club and the youngest to do so in the FA Cup.[6]

Following a promising pre-season, Dewsbury once again found himself involved in the first-team during the early stages of the 2024–25 season, making a second senior appearance as a late substitute in a 3–3 EFL Trophy draw with Tottenham Hotspur U21.[7] In September 2024, Dewsbury, alongside teammate Jerry Lawrence, joined Southern League Division One South club Yate Town.[8] On 1 October 2024, he scored a first senior goal with the second in a 2–0 away victory over Cinderford Town.[9]

International career

[edit]

In November 2023, Dewsbury was named in the Wales U16 squad for the upcoming Victory Shield tournament.[10]

In August 2024, Dewsbury was called up to the Wales U17 squad for the first time.[11]
