Ezio Touray

Ezio Touray (born 9 January 2004) is an Italian footballer who plays as a forward for Southern Premier Division club Poole Town F.C.

Club career Born in Italy, Touray began his footballing career in the academy of professional side ChievoVerona. He moved to England as a teenager, and enrolled at the John Madejski Academy. He also spent time with Reading, playing in the under-18 Premier League Cup.

At the age of seventeen, he made his debut for non-league side Flackwell Heath, before moving on to Reading City later in the same year, where he made ten appearances. After a good start to his career, Reading City manager Simon Johnson recommended him to Isthmian League side Basingstoke Town, and he signed in summer 2022.

His performances continued to impress, and after being linked with a number of National League sides, as well as an ultimately unsuccessful trial with an unnamed EFL League One side, he was invited by EFL Championship side Watford on trial in November 2022. Touray was assigned to Watford's under-21 side, but would also train with the first team during his time at the club.

In March 2023, Touray was loaned to National League side Maidstone United on a short-term deal. Following two appearances for the club, he returned to Watford, where he was released at the conclusion of the 2022–23 season.

On September 9, 2023, Touray signed for National League South side Weymouth.

Touray signed for Southern Premier League side Poole Town midway through the 2024/2025 season, scoring 12 goals in 28 games before leaving the club at the end of that season.

Following a difficult spell at Chippenham Town during the 2025/26 season Touray returned to Poole Town for the 2026/27 season. He now wears the number 9 shirt replacing Poole Town legend Shaquille Gwengwe.
