Luca Robert Colville (born 17 July 1999) is an English professional footballer who plays for Scarborough Athletic, as a winger. He has previously played for Bradford City and Greenock Morton.

Career

Colville joined Huddersfield Town at the under-11 age group, turning professional in February 2017.[2] He trialled with Sheffield United and Nottingham Forest in 2018.[2] After a trial with the club, Colville signed a one-year contract with Bradford City on 14 August 2018.[3][4] He scored on his debut later that same day, in an EFL Cup game.[5]

In May 2019, following Bradford City's relegation to League Two, he was one of 3 first-team players to be offered a new contract by the club.[6] In July 2019, City manager Gary Bowyer revealed that Colville was still considering whether to accept the offer or not.[7] At the start of the 2019–20 season Colville remained with the club on a weekly contract.[8] He made his first appearance in the 2019–20 season on 13 August 2019, in the EFL Cup.[9]

On 23 August 2019, Colville signed a two-year deal with Scottish Championship club Greenock Morton, transferring for an undisclosed fee.[10]

He returned to England in October 2021, signing for Scarborough Athletic.[11][12]
