Article

Jack Frank Porteous Cork (born 25 June 1989) is an English professional football coach and former player who played as a defensive midfielder. He is currently a first-team coach at EFL Championship club Burnley.

Cork started off his career with Chelsea but between 2006 and 2011, he went on loan to a number of clubs, including Scunthorpe United where he was named player of the year. Without making an appearance for Chelsea, he signed permanently to Championship club Southampton in 2011 where he made over 100 appearances for them and helped them gain promotion to the Premier League by featuring in all their matches. Cork spent two and a half years with Premier League club Swansea City from January 2015 to July 2017 before his permanent move to Burnley where he featured in every match en route of the club qualifying to the UEFA Europa League. He spent six seasons with Burnley, one of which was a title winning EFL Championship campaign, before his contract expired in June 2024.
