Simeon Alexander Jackson (born March 28, 1987) is a Canadian semi-professional soccer player who plays as a forward for A.F.C.

He has spent the majority of his career playing in England, relocating from Mississauga, Ontario, to South London as a teenager to pursue his interest in football.

Following a rejection by Gillingham after a trial, he played semi-professionally before making his name with Rushden & Diamonds of the Football Conference.

Desiring regular playing time, his contract with the German club was mutually terminated in January 2014 and he returned to England with Millwall.

After spells with Coventry City, Barnsley, Blackburn Rovers, Walsall and Grimsby Town, Jackson signed for Scottish club St Mirren in September 2018.

[6] When he left the Diamonds he had established himself as the club's eighth highest goalscorer, scoring 43 goals in just over 100 games in all competitions.

In January 2008, Jackson signed with Gillingham, a club he had a trial with as a youth player,[7] for a transfer fee of £150,000 on a three-and-a-half-year contract.

On January 4, 2009, Jackson scored an equalizing goal for Gillingham in their 2–1 FA Cup third round defeat by Aston Villa.

Manager Paul Lambert often used Jackson as an impact substitute due to the form and partnership of Grant Holt and Chris Martin.

[17] Jackson scored his first Premier League goal on December 20 against Wolverhampton Wanderers when he converted a Steve Morison cross one minute after being subbed on.

The club took up the option to extend Jackson's contract for another year in June 2012, along with David Fox and Elliott Ward.

[27] After just nine appearances during the first half of the season, Jackson and Eintracht Braunschweig mutually agreed to terminate his contract on January 31, 2014.

[28] On February 1, 2014, a day after his Eintracht Braunschweig contract was terminated, Jackson agreed to join Championship side Millwall on a deal until the end of the season.

[32] Following a successful trial, Jackson signed a short-term deal with Blackburn Rovers on January 15, 2016, to last until the end of the 2015–16 season.

[38] Jackson went on to a trial spell with Scottish Premiership club St Mirren in September 2018[39] and was signed on a short-term deal through January 2019.

[48] On March 5, 2021, Jackson signed for National League club King's Lynn Town on loan until the end of the 2020–21 season.

[55] National team coach Stephen Hart decided in the friendly versus Peru to experiment by using Jackson as a right winger.

[citation needed] With a solid performance at BMO Field Hart continued to use Jackson out wide for future Canada match ups.

[58] In the summer of 2013, Jackson was selected for his third consecutive Gold Cup,[59] but after playing in the first group stage game against Martinique he left with the team's blessing to join his new German club and was replaced by Kyle Porter for the remainder of the tournament.
