Nick Freeman (born 7 November 1995) is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for EFL League One club Stevenage.

Career

Freeman began his career with non-League teams Histon, Hemel Hempstead Town and Biggleswade Town before having a successful trial at League Two club Wycombe Wanderers in July 2016. He made his professional debut for the Chairboys on 13 August 2016 in a 2–1 victory against Grimsby Town.

His full debut for Wycombe came August 2016 in a 0–0 draw against Blackpool, and scored his first professional goal in the 3–0 EFL Trophy win over West Ham in October 2016, before moving out to Wealdstone on loan.

Able to operate on either flank, Freeman enjoyed more regular first-team football with Wycombe Wanderers in 2017/18, scoring his first EFL goal against Notts County, and would go on to score three more times and contribute two assists in 34 appearances as Wycombe Wanderers earned promotion to League One.

In September 2019 he signed a three-year contract with Wycombe.

On 18 January 2021, Freeman joined League Two side Leyton Orient on loan for the remainder of the 2020–21 season.

Freeman decided to leave Wycombe in pursuit of a new challenge at the end of the 2022–23 season. On 2 June 2023, he agreed to join his hometown club, newly promoted League One side Stevenage.
