Jackson Conway enters his second season with the Black and Yellow after initially signing with the club in January 2024.
The 23-year-old featured in 32 matches across all competitions for the Battery in 2024 and scored four goals en route to the club’s run to the Eastern Conference Final.
Conway was an impact player off the bench in the first half of the season, scoring all four of his goals as a substitute. Conway’s four tallies were also scored at Patriots Point. The forward’s growing impact in the second half of the campaign saw him start in the Battery’s three playoff matches.
Prior to the Battery, Conway rose through the ranks of Atlanta United FC’s academy and was signed as a Homegrown player with the first team, debuting in late 2020 at 19 years old.
Conway is a proven threat in attack and has scored in the Concacaf Champions League (now ‘Cup’), MLS, USL Championship, and MLS NEXT Pro.
The 6-2 forward tallied 28 goals and three assists in 88 matches with Atlanta United 2 (2018-23) and two goals in 12 matches with Atlanta United (2020-23). Conway scored on his first team debut, netting the match-winner against Liga MX side Club América in the 2019-20 Concacaf Champions League. He also made 10 appearances for Phoenix Rising FC in 2023 on a brief loan.
Born in Leeds, England, Conway grew up in Marrietta, Ga., and first joined Atlanta’s academy in 2016. He immediately helped the squad win the U.S. Soccer Development Academy (USSDA) National Championship in 2017. Conway’s Atlanta United 2 debut came the following year, against Charleston. He was Atlanta’s ninth Homegrown signing.
On the international stage, Conway played for the U.S. U-16 national team, featuring in two matches. He holds citizenship for the U.S. and the United Kingdom.
