Club career



Arsenal


After beginning his career as a central midfielder,[3] Thompson signed a two-year schoolboy contract with Arsenal in May 2012.[4] He was developed as a left-back and progressed through the Hale End Academy to sign a professional contract in June 2018.[3][5] During the 2018–19 season, he was an unused substitute with the EFL Trophy squad on four occasions and was a travelling reserve for the first team's dead rubber Europa League group stage match versus FC Vorskla Poltava in November 2018.[4][6] Thompson failed to win a call into a first team squad before his departure in August 2019.[7][6]


Brentford


On 7 August 2019, Thompson joined Championship club Brentford on a three-year contract, with the option of a further year, for an undisclosed fee.[7] Behind ever-present Rico Henry in the left-back pecking order,[7][8] he made five appearances during the 2019–20 season.[9] Thompson again served as backup to Rico Henry during the first half of the 2020–21 season and made 9 appearances before departing on loan for the remainder of the campaign on 4 January 2021.[10]

On 4 January 2021, Thompson joined League One club Swindon Town on loan until the end of the 2020–21 season.[10] Five days later, he made his debut with a start in a league match versus Ipswich Town and assisted each of Swindon's goals in the 3–2 win.[11][12] He made 25 appearances during the remainder of a season which culminated in relegation to League Two.[11][13] After returning from the loan at the end of the regular season,[14] Thompson was ineligible to play during Brentford's successful play-off campaign.[15]

Despite appearing in all but one of Brentford's 2021–22 pre-season matches,[16][17][18][19][20][21] Thompson was confined to making EFL Cup appearances during the early months of the regular season.[22] He was a regular inclusion on the substitutes' bench for Premier League matches and due to a hamstring problem suffered by Rico Henry,[23] Thompson made three starting appearances at left wing back around the turn of the year.[6][24] On 27 January 2022, the one-year extension on Thompson's contract was triggered and he joined League One club Ipswich Town on loan until the end of the season.[25] He ended his spell at Portman Road with 17 appearances.[22] Ahead of the 2022–23 season, Thompson was not called into Brentford's pre-season training camp in Germany and transferred out of the club on 25 July 2022.[26][27] Thompson made 19 appearances during three seasons with Brentford.[2]


Blackpool


On 25 July 2022, Thompson transferred to Championship club Blackpool and signed a three-year contract, with a one-year option, for an undisclosed fee.[28] Four days later, he made his debut for the club with a start in a 1–0 victory over Reading at Bloomfield Road.[29]


Personal life


Thompson is the son of Neville Thompson and his older brother is Greg Thompson, both of whom have competed in discus.[4] He is an Arsenal supporter.[3]
