Jason Steve Banton (born 15 December 1992) is an English footballer who plays as a winger for Plymouth Argyle. Born in Tottenham, he made his debut in the Football League in 2011. In an interview with LFC TV, Banton described himself as a left-winger, saying that "I'm right-footed but I like to play on the left and cut in."[3]

Playing career

Banton was born in Tottenham.[4] He began playing for Arsenal's youth teams at the age of seven and progressed through their academy to be offered scholarship terms.[3][5] Banton left the club in January 2008 and joined Tottenham Hotspur.[5][6] His time there was brief and he had a trial with West Ham United before returning to Arsenal.[5][6][7] He left the club again later that year after becoming "disillusioned" by his lack of progress,[8] and signed with Blackburn Rovers in October.[8][9] In his first year with the club, Banton was the top scorer in their academy side.[3][10] Banton had his contract at Blackburn terminated towards the end of 2010.[3][11][12]

He joined Liverpool in January 2011 after spending time there on trial.[3][12] Banton was released at the end of the season without making a first-team appearance for the club.[13][14] He signed a one-year contract with Leicester City that summer.[15][16] He joined Burton Albion on loan for one month in September,[16][17] and made his first-team debut the next day against Bradford City.[18] Banton returned to Leicester without making another appearance for Burton and had his contract cancelled by mutual consent in December.[19]

In January 2012, Banton signed with Major League Soccer and entered the MLS SuperDraft.[10][20] He was selected by Seattle Sounders in the second round of the 2012 MLS Supplemental Draft as the 34th pick overall.[2][21] Describing his position in the draft, Banton said: "It doesn't mean anything. I'm just glad to get the opportunity to come to Seattle."[22] The club's technical director Chris Henderson said: "We think he's a guy who, depending on how things play out with our wingers, can step in on either flank."[4] Banton was cut by the Sounders in February after attending training camps in Washington and Arizona.[23]

Banton then returned to England and joined Crystal Palace on trial in the summer, where he was given a contract through to the end of the 2012–13 season in October.[24] He made his first-team debut for Palace in an FA Cup tie against Stoke City in January 2013.[25][26] Later that month, Banton joined Plymouth Argyle on loan until March.[27][28] "He can be a very exciting player," said manager John Sheridan. "I thought it was important we got a player who is going to gain us that ground, 30 or 40 yards on up the pitch, quickly."[29] Banton made his debut in a 0–0 draw with Dagenham & Redbridge,[30] and scored both goals in a 2–1 win at Aldershot Town a week later.[31][32] In March, he signed a new one-year contract with Palace and extended his loan with Argyle until the end of the season.[33][34] Banton won the Football League Two Player of the Month award for March after scoring three goals in six appearances.[35][36] In all, he played in 14 matches for Argyle and scored six goals before being recalled by Palace in April.[37][38]

That summer, he moved to Milton Keynes Dons on loan until January 2014.[39][40] Banton made his debut against Shrewsbury Town in August and scored his first goal for the club in a League Cup tie at Northampton Town three days later.[41][42] He scored two more goals and had made 17 appearances in all competitions before losing his place in the team in December.[43] Having not played in a first team game for nearly a month,[44] and with his loan due to expire, he returned to Crystal Palace at the start of January.[45] The following week, Banton rejoined Plymouth Argyle permanently by signing an 18-month contract.[46]
