James jones the reunion career highlights


James Charles Jones (born 13 February 1996) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for League Two club Crewe Alexandra.

Club career

Jones was born in Dundee. He made his first-team debut for Crewe Alexandra as a 76th-minute substitute for Danny Haynes in Crewe Alexandra's 1–1 away draw to Crawley Town on 1 November 2014. He scored his first Crewe goal in a 3–2 win at Colchester United on 7 February 2015.

In April 2017, Crewe triggered a contract clause keeping Jones at Crewe until June 2018. In August 2017, a potential transfer to an unnamed Championship side was postponed due to concerns about a prolonged recovery from a hernia operation and a related pelvis issue.

International career

After making six appearances for Scotland U19s, Jones was selected to play for Scotland in the U21 European Championship qualifiers against Iceland and Macedonia in October 2016. He played the full 90 minutes of Scotland U21's 2–0 defeat by Iceland in Reykjavík on 5 October, and 88 minutes of the following game, a 2–0 defeat by Macedonia in Skopje on 11 October. He has since played in two friendlies: the November 2016 match against Slovakia and the March 2017 friendly against Estonia.
