Jonny Dixon (born January 16, 1984 in Murcia, Spain) is a professional footballer currently playing for Aldershot Town in the Football Conference. He plays as a striker.
Dixon began his career as a trainee with Wycombe Wanderers, turning professional in August 2001. Following regular Reserve Team appearances during 2001/02, Dixon was given a squad number by Lawrie Sanchez at the beginning of season 2002/03 and made his debut, as a late substitute for Stuart Roberts against Northampton Town on August 13, 2002. Despite suffering a knee injury, he still managed to score 5 goals in 7 starts for the Blues, earning himself a contract through to 2005.
Due to a lack of opportunities to feature in the first team at Wycombe during the 2003/04 season, he joined Dr Martens Premier League Champions Crawley Town on loan in December 2003[1].
A similar story during the 2004-05 season saw Dixon go on loan to Aldershot Town in November 2004 [2], where he scored 9 goals in 12 appearances. Due to the success of this loan period, Dixon returned to Wycombe and signed a one year contract extension in June 2005 before rejoining the Shots on loan until the end of season in January 2006[3]. It was thought that in June 2006 Dixon would sign permanently for Aldershot but following the arrival of Paul Lambert he signed a further one year contract with Wycombe. He was used mainly as a substitute by Lambert and played his final game for Wycombe in the 1-1 draw with League Champions Chelsea in the League Cup semi-final on January 10, 2007, Dixon replacing Tommy Mooney as a late substitute.
On January 11, 2007, he was signed by Aldershot Town for a fee of £6,000[4].
