John Edward Marsden (born 9 December 1992) is an English footballer. He has previously played in the Football League for Shrewsbury Town, and had a nomadic career in non-league football.
Marsden played youth team football with Wrexham and Wigan Athletic, and was a prolific goal scorer for Liverpool Schoolboys at under-14 and under-15 levels.[1] He joined Scottish club Celtic at the age of 16, signing a professional contract.[2] He spent the 2010–11 season on loan to Hamilton Academical's youth team.[3] [4] Whilst at Celtic, Marsden suffered a broken foot, all but ending his chances of breaking into the first team, and was subsequently released. He moved on to Rochdale, playing on non-contract terms for their reserve side and scoring eight in 14 games. After a contract failed to materialise, however, he joined Welsh Premier League side Aberystwyth Town and then Stockport Sports.[5]
After scoring 21 goals in 31 matches for Stockport Sports he earned a trial at Stoke City.[6] His trial was successful and he signed a contract until the end of the 2012–13 season.[7] Marsden failed to extend his stay at Stoke and joined Shrewsbury Town in July 2013 after a trial period.[8] He made his professional debut in a goalless draw against Milton Keynes Dons on 3 August 2013,[9] and appeared again in a League Cup defeat to Bolton Wanderers, but broke a bone in his foot early in the game, an injury which ruled him out for up to eight weeks.[10] On 24 January 2014, Shrewsbury Town confirmed the departure of Marsden by mutual consent.[11]
On 4 August 2014 Marsden joined Conference Premier side Southport.[12] He moved on loan to Lincoln City for the rest of the season on 12 February 2015.[13] He then had a short spell at Macclesfield Town, making two appearances in August 2015 before joining Welsh side Colwyn Bay.[14]
Marsden joined Stockport County in January 2016.[15]
In July 2018 he joined Stalybridge Celtic. He left the club in September 2018.[16]
