Cole John Stockton (born 13 March 1994) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for Barrow on loan from EFL League One club Burton Albion. A physical forward, he has good finishing skills with his right-foot.
Stockton overcame a serious bout of septicaemia and began his career at Tranmere Rovers. He made his debut in senior football on loan at Vauxhall Motors during the 2011–12 season and turned professional at Tranmere in April 2012. He spent the 2015–16 season on loan at Southport and Morecambe, and also spent the first half of the 2016–17 campaign on loan at Morecambe. He returned to Tranmere and helped the club to reach the play-off final, where they were beaten by Forest Green Rovers. He left Tranmere at the end of his contract, moving from the National League to the Scottish Premiership after being signed by Heart of Midlothian in June 2017. He returned to the English Football League with Carlisle United in January 2018, before leaving Carlisle to rejoin Tranmere Rovers eight months later. He spent the second half of the 2018–19 season on loan at Wrexham. He rejoined Morecambe in June 2019. He scored six goals and fifteen goals in the 2019–20 and 2020–21 seasons, before scoring 26 goals in 50 appearances during the 2021–22 campaign; this scoring record earned him two successive League One Player of the Month and Goal of the Month awards and a place on the PFA Team of the Year.
