Playing Career |
Club(s) |
Began his career with
York & District under-13's alongside York City FC's youth system, moving
to the Middlesbrough FC youth academy in the summer of 2011. He was
released from the Teesside club and failed trials with Leeds United AFC
and Sheffield Wednesday FC before returning to York at under-15 level and
becoming the under-18 captain and breaking into the first team. On 15
January 2016, Godfrey signed for Norwich City FC for an undisclosed fee
and played in their Academy side before breaking into the first team
again. On 24 August 2017, Godfrey signed a loan deal with Shrewsbury Town
FC that would last the season. Returned to Carrow Road to cement his first
team place. Joined Everton FC on 5 October 2020 for £20 million. In
the first Transfer Window window of 2024, Godfrey attracted interest from
a variety of clubs, with Italian side, Genoa leading the way and in direct
talks. However, it was Atalanta BC that signed Godfrey for £10 million, on
28 June 2024, ahead of a £12.7 million move to Olympique Lyonnaisse.
Made his debut as a substitute in the UEFA Super Cup, and in Serie A on 19
August against Lecce, has made none+one appearance up until 19 August
2024. |
