Career

Doncaster Rovers

Goodman graduated from The Holgate Academy.[2] He joined Notts County at under-8 level, but dropped out at under-13 level to play with Hucknall Sports.[3] He rejoined Notts County in 2021, but elected to take up a scholarship at Doncaster Rovers.[3] He made his first-team debut at the age of sixteen, having come on as an 87th-minute substitute for Joe Dodoo in a 3–2 win at Scunthorpe United in the EFL Trophy; this made him the seventh youngest person in history to play for the club.[3] He scored eighteen goals for the youth-team in the 2021–22 campaign and scored five goals in one afternoon in July 2022.[4] He made his home first-team debut at the Eco-Power Stadium on 9 August 2022, in a 3–0 defeat to Lincoln City in the EFL Cup; manager Gary McSheffrey said Goodman was "the positive for the night".[5]

On 26 December 2022, he joined Stamford of the Northern Premier League Division One Midlands on loan.[6]

Goodman made his league debut on 3 April 2023, coming on as a half time substitute in Doncaster's home match against Crewe Alexandra.[7]

On 23 July 2023, Goodman signed for Gainsborough Trinity on loan for the 2023–24 season.[8]
