Jordan Fagbola has left Hyde United and is now a free agent after his contract with the Northern Premier League side expired, with the move formally registered on 02/02/2026 and his status as unattached running until 02/02/2026. The 32-year-old centre-back, who holds both English and Nigerian nationality, departs Hyde United to join the list of players registered as “Without Club”, opening the door to a next step in a career that has taken him across the English non-league pyramid.
The transfer is recorded as a free move, with no fee involved and no market value listed at the time of his release. Fagbola’s switch is therefore a straightforward deregistration from Hyde United, confirming his availability to sign for a new employer. With no contractual ties beyond 02/02/2026, the defender is immediately eligible to negotiate with clubs in England or abroad.
Fagbola’s exit ends his latest spell at Hyde United, a club he has represented on multiple occasions. He first joined Hyde from FC United of Manchester on 01/07/2018, before later re-signing for the club on 22/11/2025 after a stint at Trafford FC. His most recent move back to Hyde from Trafford was also on a free transfer, underlining the pattern of short-term, flexible deals that has shaped his later career.
Before his time at Trafford and Hyde, the Manchester-born defender played for Atherton Collieries, joining them from Hyde on 07/07/2023, again without a fee. That move followed his spell at FC United of Manchester, whom he joined from Solihull Moors on 27/01/2017. Earlier still, he had moved from Colwyn Bay to Solihull Moors on 07/07/2016, and from Stockport County to Colwyn Bay on 29/05/2015. His senior pathway began when he stepped up from Rochdale AFC U18 to Stockport County on 01/08/2012.
Across these clubs, Fagbola has consistently been listed in his primary role as a centre-back, standing 1.91 m tall and operating predominantly on his right foot. The data does not provide detailed statistics on his appearances, goals, or defensive contributions, nor does it specify match-by-match performances, but his repeated recruitment by clubs such as Hyde United, FC United, Atherton Collieries, Solihull Moors, Colwyn Bay and Stockport County indicates long-term trust in his defensive qualities at non-league level.
While his new registration is simply “Without Club” and not tied to any particular league or country, his dual English–Nigerian nationality and free-agent status mean he is not restricted to remaining in England. With no transfer fee or listed market value attached, any future employer could potentially acquire an experienced central defender without paying compensation, making him an accessible option for sides in various competitions once a concrete offer arrives.
For now, the confirmed fact is clear: as of 02/02/2026, Jordan Fagbola has left Hyde United and is a free agent until 02/02/2026, available for a new challenge after more than a decade moving through the English non-league system.
