Cody Cooke (born 2 March 1993) is an English professional footballer who plays as a striker for Torquay United.
Born in Truro, Cooke attended Penryn College.[1]
Cooke began his career in English non-league football with Penryn Athletic,[2] before playing for Truro City between 2011 and 2018, while studying for a PGCE in Sport Development at Plymouth Marjon University.[3]
After spending time with the V9 Academy, Cooke turned professional in June 2018, after signing for Scottish club St Mirren alongside Josh Heaton.[1] [4] He made his debut for St Mirren on 13 July 2018 in the Scottish League Cup. He scored a hat-trick in the final game of the 2018–19 season.[1] He described his first season as a professional as a "rollercoaster".[2]
On 1 August 2019, the club confirmed that Cooke would be out of action for between six and nine months after rupturing knee ligaments during a match.[5] He returned to action in December 2019.[6]
On 2 June 2020 it was announced that he would remain with the club under the coronavirus furlough scheme before leaving the club.[7] In June 2020, Cooke left Saints when his contract expired.[8] Cooke said he wanted to move nearer to his home in Cornwall, and would consider returning to part-time football in order to do so.[9]
On 28 August 2020, Cooke signed for newly-promoted National League side Weymouth.[10]
Cooke was released from Weymouth at the end of the 2020–21 season,[11] and on 11 June 2021 joined National League South side Bath City.[12]
On 23 July 2024, Cooke signed for fellow National League side Torquay United.[13]
