Born in Yorkshire, Clayton Donaldson stands at 6ft 1' 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.
