George Thomas Johnston (born 1 September 1998) is a professional footballer who plays as a defender for League One club Bolton Wanderers . Born in England, Johnston represents Scotland at youth international level.
Liverpool [ edit ]
Johnston came through the Academy at Liverpool , making one first-team appearance in a preseason friendly against Torino at Anfield in August 2018.[3]
Feyenoord [ edit ]
In August 2019, he moved to Feyenoord on a permanent deal.[4] Feyenoord paid Liverpool £300,000, and the deal included a 30% sell-on clause.[5]
Wigan Athletic (loan) [ edit ]
On 22 January 2021, Johnston joined League One side Wigan Athletic on loan for the remainder of the 2020–21 season.[6] He scored his first goal for Wigan in a 3–0 win against Milton Keynes Dons on 6 March 2021.[7]
Bolton Wanderers [ edit ]
On 4 June 2021, Johnston returned to League One, this time joining Bolton Wanderers on a three-year deal.[8] He turned down Wigan to join Bolton.[9] His competitive debut came on 7 August in a 3–3 draw against Milton Keynes Dons , where he made a goal line clearance.[10] On 2 April 2023, he came on as a substitute in the 2023 EFL Trophy final against Plymouth Argyle . Bolton went on to win 4–0.[11] On 8 July, Johnston suffered an injury in a pre-season friendly at Bamber Bridge and three days later the club confirmed that he was likely to miss the whole of the following season.[12] In spite of this, on 1 August, Johnston signed a new deal taking him up to 2026.[13]
International career [ edit ]
Johnston has represented Scotland at under-20 and under-21 level.[14]
