Alexander Cole Mighten (born 11 April 2002) is a professional footballer who plays as a winger for Major League Soccer club San Diego FC.
He was an unused substitute in the 2022 EFL Championship play-off final and made his Premier League debut in August of that year.
He signed with San Diego FC of Major League Soccer in August 2024 and was immediately loaned out to Danish club Nordsjælland.
[7] On 24 September 2019, Mighten made his professional debut when he appeared as a 78th-minute substitute during a 5–0 loss in an EFL Cup fixture at Arsenal.
[9] He then made his first start for the Reds on 5 January 2020, in a 2–0 defeat to Chelsea in an FA Cup match; Mighten impressed in the game, winning a penalty for Forest only for it to be ruled out by a marginal VAR decision.
[24][25] Wednesday decided to end the loan as they were contributing a significant portion of the player's wages, much to Forest manager Steve Cooper's frustration.
[32] After being recalled by Forest on 9 January 2024, Mighten remained in Nottingham until transfer deadline day, when he was loaned to League One side Port Vale for the remainder of the 2023–24 season.
[35] On 30 August 2024, Mighten signed with Major League Soccer side San Diego FC ahead of their inaugural season in 2025.
