Kyle Edwards (footballer, born 1998)

Kyle Hakeem Edwards (born 17 February 1998) is an English professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder or left winger for EFL League One club Stevenage.

He made his senior professional debut in September 2017 while on loan at EFL League Two side Exeter City.

During the 2019–20 season, Edwards helped West Brom win promotion from the EFL Championship following a second-placed league finish.

He left West Brom in July 2021 following the expiry of his contract, and joined Ipswich Town on a free transfer the following month.

During the play-off final, Edwards came off the bench to score a consolation goal as Exeter lost 1–3 to Coventry at Wembley Stadium.

[12] He made his Albion debut as a half-time substitute in the club's 1–0 win against Luton Town in the EFL Cup on 14 August 2018.

[15] He scored twice in 11 appearances during his first full season in the West Brom first team, helping the club reach the EFL Championship play-offs.

[21] He featured infrequently in the West Brom first team under manager Slaven Bilić during the first half of the 2020–21 season, and found game time very limited during the second half of the season following the arrival of Sam Allardyce, his only appearance coming in an FA Cup third-round tie against Blackpool on 9 January.

[33] In 2017, Darren Moore (then Professional Development Coach of West Bromwich Albion) described Edwards as an exciting talent with real potential.
