Born and raised in Wimbledon, south London, Josh developed a passion for football from an early age and joined Fulham's academy as a young boy after being spotted by a scout in a local park.
A lifelong supporter of the club, he progressed through the youth ranks, regularly playing above his age group and earning recognition for his technical ability, maturity and understanding of the game.
King's dedication and impressive performances at academy level earned him his first professional contract in January 2024 and he made his senior debut in August 2024 in an EFL Cup victory over Birmingham City, before making his Premier League debut against Brighton & Hove Albion in December of the same year.
His development continued throughout the 2024-25 season, establishing himself as one of Fulham's most exciting young prospects. During the 2025-26 campaign, he enjoyed a significant breakthrough, becoming an increasingly important member of the first team and scoring his first Premier League goal against Burnley in March 2026.
On the international stage, King has represented England at several youth levels, progressing from MU15 through to MU21 level. He was part of the England MU19 squad at the 2025 UEFA European U19 Championship, where he scored against Germany in an entertaining 5–5 group-stage draw.
He subsequently progressed to the MU21 side, making his debut in October 2025 and scoring his first goal at that level the following month. In June 2026, his performances earned him an invitation to train with the senior England squad during their preparations for the FIFA World Cup. In November 2026, he received his first official senior England call-up, marking a major milestone in his international career.
King is regarded as one of England's promising young midfield talents. His technical quality, versatility, work ethic and composure have helped him make an impressive transition from academy football to the Premier League, with an exciting future ahead at both club and international level.
