Born in Yorkshire, Clayton Donaldson stands at 6ft 1in and signed for Crewe Alexandra in August 2008. Clayton began as a youth player for Bradford but his professional career began with Hull City in 2002, marking his debut with a goal in the Football League Trophy later that year.

With chances in Hull's first team limited, Clayton was sent out on loan to a number of clubs for first team experience. In 2005 he was released and quickly snapped up by York City, where he first caught the eye of Crewe Alexandra.

In his first season at York he was voted as Clubman of The Year, and finished his second season there as the top scorer and third top scorer in the League.

He moved north of the border in July 2007 to Hibernian after just a few months as he saw his appearances dwindle when new management arrived, after just one season in Scotland, he signed for the Alex.

Scored his first goals for the club in a 3-2 defeat at Huddersfield and followed that up with the winner against non-league Ebbsfleet United in the first round of the FA Cup in 2008. His goal scoring form continued throughout the 2009/10 season, although it rather frustratingly took him until November to open his account for the season. It was a case though of once that first one was scored there was no stopping him. The pacey striker can operate as a front man or on the wing, and scored 13 goals last term, finishing as the club's second top scorer, including a goal return of four goals in just three games in March 2010. Clayton will be looking to further that success this year.
