Nineteen-year-old goalkeeper Jackson joined the Potters from Walsall’s academy in summer 2022.

He made his Under-18s debut in a win over Leeds United in August before keeping a clean sheet against Manchester United in only his second game for the club.

Having waited patiently for his chance at Under-21 level, he was handed starts against Swansea City and Arsenal in December as Kevin Russell’s side recorded a 4-0 win and 2-2 draw respectively.
