Mariners sign talented 18-year-old midfielder Alex Bolton

Central Coast Mariners are pleased to announce the signing of 18-year-old midfielder Alex Bolton, with the promising youngster joining the club ahead of the Isuzu UTE A-League 2026/27 squad on a scholarship deal.

Bolton arrives on the Central Coast after a spell in Europe with Swedish giants AIK, after previously being part of Perth Glory’s youth system. 

He has also represented Australia at youth level, playing alongside his new Mariners teammates Haine Eames and Jai Ajanovic for the Joeys. 

A technically gifted, left-footed player who can operate in various midfield roles, Alex will add depth and quality to John Hutchinson’s midfield options for the 2026/27 season – which gets underway for the Mariners on Wednesday against Sydney United 58.
