Player Profile:

Skilful winger born in Lambeth. Joseph played for local side Hillyfielders as a child. He was spotted by Crystal Palace in 2009 when he joined his brother Jacob at a session run by a club coach at Peckham Rye Park.

Following a trial, he signed for the club's under-9s and was Palace's u9-u16 player of the year for 2015-16. He started a two-year scholarship in summer 2016, later captaining the club's under-18 side.

In summer 2018, Joseph became a professional, signing a one-year contract with the club. 

He was loaned to Margate in January 2019 for the rest of the season. Margate joint manager Mike Sandmann was his former under-9s coach at Palace and he ended up making nine appearances in total.

Joseph's Margate debut was on 19.1.19 when he came on as a 54th minute sub for Dave Martin in a 1-0 defeat at Haringey Borough. 

He then missed Margate's next two matches to take part in a pre-arranged tournament in Israel but returned to start six consecutive games without scoring.

In summer 2019, Joseph was released by Crystal Palace and signed for fellow Premier League side Watford.

On 23.1.20, he made his senior debut for Watford, starting in a 2-1 FA Cup third round replay defeat at Tranmere Rovers.

He then joined National League side Aldershot Town on a short-term loan in November 2020. After featuring in six league games for the Shots, he returned to Watford in January 2021.

In August 2021, Joseph joined Scottish Premiership club Ross County on a season-long loan. On 22.8.21, he made his debut as a substitute in a 4-2 home league defeat against Rangers. 

He scored a stunning free-kick in Ross County's 5-0 victory at Dundee on 27.10.21 - a goal that won him SPFL Goal of the Month.

In January 2023, Joseph joined Championship side Huddersfield Town on loan for the remainder of 2022-23.

In July 2023, Joseph completed a transfer to 2 Bundesliga club FC Nurnberg for an undisclosed fee. He made 17 appearances for the German side.

Joseph returned to England in July 2024 when he joined League One side Rotherham United on a season-long loan deal. He signed for Wigan Athletic from FC Nurnberg for an undisclosed fee in January 2025.
