Tommy Paul Wood (born 26 November 1998) is an English footballer who plays as a forward for Lewes.

Career[edit]

After spells in the academy teams at Wycombe Wanderers and Reading, Wood signed a two-year scholarship with Burnley in 2015. After winning the player of the season award for the Clarets youth team in 2016–17, his scholarship was extended for another year, and he experienced senior football for the first time with loan spells at Barnoldswick Town[2] and Ossett Albion.[3] He was released at the end of the season.

Wood joined AFC Wimbledon in May 2018.[4] He made his league debut as an 84th-minute substitute in the 0–3 loss to Fleetwood Town on 22 January 2019.[5]

In February 2019, he joined Slough Town on a one-month loan deal.[6]

On 14 March 2019, he joined Burgess Hill Town on loan until the end of the season.[7] Two days later, he scored the winning goal on his debut, a 3–2 away win against Kingstonian.[8]

On 6 September 2019, he joined Leatherhead on an initial 28 day loan deal.[9] After returning to Wimbledon from his loan period he scored his first goal for the club in an EFL Trophy tie against Southend United on 13 November 2019.[10] In June 2020, Wood was among the group of players whose contracts were not renewed by AFC Wimbledon.[11]

Wood joined Tonbridge on a permanent deal on 13 October 2020.[12]

On 25 May 2022, after two campaigns at Tonbridge, Wood agreed to join Hampton & Richmond Borough ahead of the 2022–23 season.[13]
