Jamie Ryan Jellis (born 12 January 2001) is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for EFL League Two club Walsall.
Early career and Stevenage
Jellis began his career with Aylesbury United, making his first-team debut at the age of 16, scoring on his debut as a substitute in a 1–3 loss at Bedford Town. He made 10 appearances for Aylesbury before his 17th birthday and, following a brief spell with Tring Corinthians, signed for League Two side Stevenage in November 2017.[2][3] Following a series of injuries, including a broken leg, Jellis had two successful loan spells in the early part of the 2019–20 season, at former club Aylesbury and Hitchin Town.[4][5] On his return to Stevenage, he turned professional in January 2020.[5] Shortly after signing pro-terms at Stevenage, Jellis spent a month on loan at Wingate & Finchley.[6][7] He was released by Stevenage in 2020.[2]
Return to non-league football
After leaving Stevenage he returned to Aylesbury for a third spell, before moving to Kings Langley in October 2021.[8] A brief spell at Hemel Hempstead Town followed in February 2022, before Jellis returned to Kings Langley for the start of the 2022–23 season.[3]
Later in 2022, Jellis joined Tamworth on loan for a month, before returning on loan again in February 2023.[9] He joined Tamworth permanently in the summer of 2023. Jellis was part of the Lambs side that won back-to-back league titles by securing the Southern League Premier Division Central title in 2023[10] and the National League North title in 2024.[11]
Walsall
Jellis signed for Walsall in January 2024.[12][13] Having suffered an injury whilst playing for Tamworth,[14][15] in April 2024 he was said to be close to first-team action,[16] and he made his debut on 13 April 2024, appearing as a late substitute in a 1–3 home defeat to Notts County.[17] He scored his first goal in an EFL Cup tie against Exeter City in the 90th minute allowing Walsall to win on penalties.[18] He won League Two Goal of the month for October 2024 with a volley against Grimsby Town on 19 October in a 4–1 win for Walsall.[19]
