George Thomas Maris (born 6 March 1996) is an English professional footballer who plays as a central midfielder for League Two club Mansfield Town.
Maris began his career at Barnsley at under-15 level, signing his first professional contract on 29 May 2014 after a 20-goal season for the under-18s. [3]
On 30 January 2015, he went on a one-month youth loan to Nuneaton Town in the Conference Premier. [4] He started on his senior debut the following day, in a 1–0 loss at Forest Green Rovers. [5] On 28 February, he played in their 1–0 win over Welling United two days after his loan had expired; this resulted in Nuneaton receiving a three-point deduction. [6] He played nine matches in total, without scoring, in a season which ended with relegation.
Maris was first included in a Barnsley matchday squad on 25 April 2015, for their League One fixture against fellow Yorkshiremen Bradford City at Valley Parade; he replaced Luke Berry for the final 13 minutes of a 1–0 loss. [7] Eight days later he made his first professional start at Oakwell, as his team concluded their season with a 5–0 rout of Rochdale. [8]
On 1 February 2016, Maris was signed on loan for the rest of the season by Lincoln City. [9]
On 3 June 2016 Maris signed a one-year deal with League Two club Cambridge United. [10] He made his debut for the club against Barnet F.C on 6 August 2016, a 1–1 draw at the Abbey Stadium. Maris scored his first goal for the club away at Wycombe Wanderers in a 2–1 loss 19 November 2016. He later signed a contract extension for a further two years in April 2017. [11]
He was offered a new contract by Cambridge United at the end of the 2018–19 season. [12]
On 28 July 2020, Maris signed a two-year contract with League Two side Mansfield Town after joining the club for an undisclosed fee. [13]
