James Vaughan (born 6 December 1986) is an English footballer who plays for Droylsden as a right-back. He has also played at left-back.
Born in Liverpool, Vaughan was signed by Chester in January 2006 from Tranmere Rovers, where he made more than 50 reserve team appearances. He joined his father (owner) and brother (defender) (both called Stephen) at the club. His first-team debut came when he replaced his brother in the closing stages of Chester's 4-4 draw in the LDV Vans Trophy at Chesterfield on November 29, 2006.
After a successful loan spell at Droylsden, who he helped win the Conference North title, Vaughan returned to Chester and was a regular in the closing matches of the 2006-07.
Vaughan was given squad number 22 for 2007-08 and commanded a regular spot as first-choice right back for the next two seasons The Football League. In April 2009, Vaughan moved to Australia and joined Wollongong for who he played 7 games. Whilst in Australia he played a further 2 games with A-League side Sydney FC, and 1 game for A-League side Central Coast. Despite looking promising at the back, he was not offered a contract due to visa restrictions. Upon his return to the UK, he has been linked with a move to League One side Oldham Athletic.
On 24 October Vaughan was an unused substitute for Droylsden in their league game against Eastwood Town.
