Joshua Darren Hare (born 12 August 1994) is an English professional footballer who plays as a defender for Bristol Rovers.

Career

Hare signed his first professional contract with Gillingham in November 2012.[3] He signed a one-year contract with the "Gills" in May 2014,[4] but found first-team football hard to come by and was sent on an initial one-month loan to Conference South side Eastbourne Borough.[5] His loan was extended to 10 January but on 5 January the loan was cut short.[6]

On 8 July 2016, having left Gillingham, Hare signed for Eastbourne Borough.[7]

Bristol Rovers

On 12 June 2019, Hare signed for Bristol Rovers on a free transfer following the expiry of his contract at Eastleigh.[8]

After making an impressive start to the season, Hare suffered an injury and had to be stretchered off in a league match against Gillingham on 17 September.[9] He returned to first-team action on 7 March 2020 in a 3-1 defeat to Southend United[10] and featured three days later in a 2-0 win against Sunderland, the last match before the league’s abandonment.[11]

He scored his first goal for the club on 18 November 2020, scoring a 90th minute winner in a 4–3 victory over Chelsea U21 in the final match of the group stage of the EFL Trophy, with Hare's goal seeing the Gas qualify for the knockout stages.[12]

Personal life

Hare is the son of Darren Hare, a former player who has worked as youth team manager at Gillingham, the nephew of former Gillingham player and manager Andy Hessenthaler, and the cousin of another former Gills player, Jake Hessenthaler.[13]
