Career

Hampton & Richmond

Thompson started his career at Hampton & Richmond Borough. He made his debut with only 16 years old, on 12 March 2011, against Weston-super-Mare. He scored his first career goal three days later, against Woking.[2] His success at the club earned him trials at Stoke City in July,[3] Newcastle, Crystal Palace in October[4] and Queens Park Rangers.

Portsmouth and loans

On 5 January 2012, Thompson signed for Portsmouth, in a one-year scholarship deal.[5] This caused concern for Hampton & Richmond as they expected compensation.[6]

After his signing to Portsmouth, Thompson joined Havant & Waterlooville on loan until the end of the season, to gain first-team experience.[7] He made a total of 13 appearances (12 league matches and 1 was a friendly against Bournemouth).[8]

After the end of the season, Thompson was promoted to the Portsmouth first team.[9] And made his debut on 14 August, starting in a Football League Cup match against Plymouth Argyle.[10] Due to an increase in players, Thompson was relegated to the Development squad. On 29 October 2012, he scored 4 goals against Gosport, in a friendly match for the Development squad. Despite his performance against Gosport, the manager Guy Whittingham ruled out his involvement in first team squad, due to 20-man shortage.[11] On 21 November 2012, Thompson joined Dorchester Town on an initial month-long loan, alongside George Colson.[12] Thompson made his debut in a FA Trophy match against Luton Town coming on as a substitute in the 78th minute, the match ended in a 2-2 draw.

In January 2013 Thompson signed for Isthmian Premier Division side Bognor Regis Town on a month-long loan.[13]

In March, Thompson was told that his Pompey contract would not be renewed.[14] After his return to Pompey, he was released.

Return to Non-League

In July, Thompson returned to Hampton & Richmond Borough, making his re-debut for the club on 25 September, against Wingate & Finchley.[15]

In December 2013, he joined Conference South side Hayes and Yeading United,[16] but he was already departed by their first match of 2014.[17]

He resigned for Bognor Regis Town in February 2014,[18][19] and Farnborough in August 2014.[20]

In September 2014 he was back Bognor Regis for his third spell,[21][22] then Redhill in January 2015,[23] Hampton & Richmond Borough once again over the summer of 2015,[24] Walton & Hersham in September 2015,[25] Bedfont Sports in October 2015,[26] Hampton & Richmond Borough again in November 2015,[27] Chipstead in December 2015,[28] and back at Hampton & Richmond Borough in January 2016.

After being part of the Hampton & Richmond Borough squad that won the 2015–16 Isthmian League Premier Division, he joined Burgess Hill Town in August 2016 after a successful trial.[29]
