Description
Matthew James Godden (born 29 July 1991) is an English professional footballer who plays as a striker for EFL Championship club Charlton Athletic.
Godden began his career with Scunthorpe United, signing professional terms in 2009. He was loaned out on eight occasions in order to gain first-team experience before joining Conference Premier club Ebbsfleet United, one of his former loan clubs, on a permanent basis in May 2014. After two seasons at Ebbsfleet, he returned to the Football League with a move to Stevenage in June 2016, spending two years there before signing for Peterborough United in June 2018.
A year later, Godden joined Coventry City, where he scored 50 goals in 156 appearances over five seasons and helped the club achieve promotion to the Championship during the 2019–20 season. He signed for Charlton Athletic in July 2024 and was the club's top goalscorer in his first season as they won promotion to the Championship via the 2025 EFL League One play-offs.
