Cauley Woodrow (born 2 December 1994) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for EFL Championship club Blackburn Rovers, on loan from Luton Town.
Woodrow began his professional career at Luton Town, in the Conference Premier at the time, for whom he made three appearances in the FA Trophy as a 16-year-old.
He scored eight goals in one of his early games,[9] and played in the team that represented the South of England in the national finals of the Tesco Cup in 2008.
In the summer of 2010, he was part of their under-15 team that reached the final of a 40-team tournament involving several major European clubs' youngsters,[11] and in September he scored six goals in an FA Youth Cup qualifying match against Cogenhoe United.
[4] In March 2011, Woodrow signed for Premier League club Fulham for a "six-figure" fee, possibly rising to seven figures depending on the player's future progress; the deal included what Luton's managing director described as "a very healthy sell-on clause".
[37] He scored his first goal for the club a 2–1 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers on 4 February 2017, with a close-range shot in the fourth minute of stoppage time in.
[41] Woodrow joined League One club Barnsley on 24 August 2018 on loan until January 2019, ahead of a proposed permanent transfer.
[42] He signed for Barnsley permanently on 3 January 2019 on a two-and-a-half-year contract, with the option of a further year in the club's favour, for an undisclosed fee.
[47][48] On 3 February 2025, Woodrow joined fellow Championship side Blackburn Rovers on a loan deal until the end of the season.
When he made his debut, scoring the equalising goal in a 1–1 draw with Romania,[50] he became the first non-League footballer to play for an England youth team since Bob Oates of Ashley Road in 1974.
[51] Woodrow's next England callup came in May 2014; he was included in a mixed under-20/under-21 squad to face Wales U21 in a European Championship qualifier and to compete in that summer's Toulon Tournament.
[55] Woodrow made three more appearances for England U21 later in 2015,[52] and was included in the squad for the 2016 Toulon Tournament, which the Football Association were treating as an under-21 competition.
