Club Career

Junior Career

Jordan Stewart started his football career as a junior playing for Linfield, Crusaders and Windsor Youth before joining Glentoran.

Glentoran

Stewart joined the Glentoran first team on 1 July 2013.[1]

2014-15

During the 2014-2015 season, Stewart made 36 appearances for Glentoran and scored 13 goals, with his most notable game being a hat-trick against Warrenpoint. In July 2015, Stewart signed a contract which would keep him at Glentoran until 2018.[2] On 14 July 2015, he was suspended for two weeks for breaching his contract by playing for another team on 11 July.[3]

Stewart's final goals during his spell with Glentoran came in the 2-2 home draw against reigning champions Crusaders. His first goal of the game was a 30-yard strike which gained much media attention across the United Kingdom.[4]

Swindon Town

During his career at Glentoran, Stewart gained the attention of Premier League and Football League clubs in England including Stoke City, Crystal Palace and Middlesbrough.[5][6] However, on 21 August 2015 and several days after an unofficial announcement, Glentoran confirmed Stewart would move to Swindon Town[7] in an undisclosed deal was believed to be between £50,000 to £55,000.[8] Stewart's contract was reported to be for two years with a plus one option. Only 6 weeks into his time at Swindon he made it clear to club chairman Lee Power that he was homesick and did not want to continue to play for Swindon Town and that wanted to return to Northern Ireland. Glentoran showed interest in buying him back, and were also attempting to loan him back until the end of the 2015-2016 season until the deal fell through.

On 24 March 2016, Stewart joined National League side Grimsby Town on loan until the end of the season.[9] Having made two appearances in his loan spell, on 22 April 2016, Stewart has returned to parent club Swindon Town.[10]
