Reo Revaldo Griffiths (born 27 June 2000) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for MLS Next Pro club Portland Timbers 2.

Club career

Griffiths started his career with Tottenham Hotspur, scoring 33 goals for the club's under–18 side in the 2017–18 season.[2] In the summer of 2018, refusing to sign professional with Tottenham, he was courted by many clubs, such as RB Leipzig, Real Madrid, Barcelona and PSG.[3] On 1 August 2018, he joined Lyon on a four-year deal.[2] He spent three and a half years with Lyon, largely playing for the club's B team in the Championnat National 2.

On 31 January 2022, Griffiths signed for League One side Doncaster Rovers for an undisclosed fee, in a two-and-a-half-year deal.[4] A day later, he made his professional debut as a second-half substitute in a 5–0 loss to Rotherham United.[5]

On 6 March 2023, Griffiths joined National League side Yeovil Town on loan until the end of the season.[6] On 10 November 2023, his contract at Doncaster was cancelled by mutual consent.[7] In January 2024, it was reported that Griffiths was playing Sunday league football in the Essex Corinthian League for Critics FC.[8]

In March 2024, Griffiths signed for National League club Wealdstone.[9]

After one match in the FA Trophy for Wealdstone, Griffiths joined MLS Next Pro club Portland Timbers 2 in April 2024.[10] The following month, he was ruled out for the season after undergoing surgery on his achilles.[11] Despite not making an appearance for Portland during the season, he signed a new six-month contract in November 2024.[12]

International career

In May 2017, Griffiths made his debut for England U17 as a late substitute in a 3–1 win over Norway U17.[13]
