Matty Dixon

Matthew "Matty" Dixon (born 19 December 1994) is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for National League club York City.

Dixon was born in Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire. He began his career with Hull City and after progressing though the youth teams at the club he signed a professional contract in May 2013. He spent time on loan at Conference North club Gainsborough Trinity in the 2014–15 season. He made his Hull debut on 11 August 2015 in a League Cup match against Accrington Stanley.

On 15 January 2016, Dixon joined League Two club York City on a one-and-a-half-year contract on a free transfer. He was signed as a replacement for Ben Godfrey, who had left York for Premier League club Norwich City. His debut came on 23 January 2016 as a starter in York's 1–1 away draw with Carlisle United, and manager Jackie McNamara commented that he was "excellent for his debut and passed the ball well on a difficult afternoon". According to Dave Flett of The Press, however, Dixon "found it difficult to impose himself on proceedings", and that he would "need to come to terms with the speed of the professional game if he is to progress next season". He made seven appearances for York in 2015–16 as they were relegated into the National League after finishing bottom of League Two.
