Career
Jeffrey began his career at Arsenal, joining the club"s academy at the age of eight. He had attracted the interest of Chelsea and Liverpool, but opted to sign for the club he supported. He progressed through the various youth ranks, scoring 20 goals from midfield for the U16 side, before playing regularly at U18 level while still on schoolboy terms.
Jeffrey continued to play for the U18 side as a first-year scholar during the 2011-2012 campaign, scoring six times in 19 appearances.
On his first full season of football at U18 level, Jeffrey stated—"I know what I put in on the training pitch will improve my game and help me get to my target of playing for the first-team I have belief in my ability, but I know it will not just come to me".
He remained a regular feature for the youth side during the following season, playing twelve times in the U18 league, as well as scoring two goals in three games in the FA Youth Cup. Jeffrey would also go on to make six further appearances in the NextGen Series, and also make his Arsenal U21 debut in a 0–0 draw against Blackburn Rovers in October 2012.
In March 2013, Jeffrey joined League One side Stevenage on loan for the remainder of the 2012-2013 season.
He made his professional debut in the club"s 1–0 home defeat to Bournemouth on 12 March, coming on as an 81st-minute substitute. On 3 December 2013, it was announced that he would join Boreham Wood on loan on a short-term deal until January 2014. On 3 January 2014, it was announced that his loan spell was extended until 1 March 2014.
On 22 January 2014, Jeffrey had his contract at Arsenal cancelled by mutual consent.
On 23 January 2014, Jeffrey signed for Wycombe Wanderers until the end of the 2013-2014 season. He was released in May 2014.
He subsequently returned to Boreham Wood in December 2014. He then moved up a division to join Conference Premier outfit Welling United the following month in January 2015.
In the summer of 2015 he linked up with National League South side Concord Rangers.
Only a few months later however, in October 2015, he returned to Boreham Wood, who had since been promoted into the National League on loan. His loan move turned into a permanent move in December 2015 after he agreed a deal to stay at Boreham Wood until the end of the 2015-2016 season. As part of the deal he was instantly loaned back to Boreham Wood.
He made his Forest Green Rovers debut on 25 March 2016 in a 0-0 home draw against Aldershot Town.
Jeffrey can be deployed as either a winger or a striker. He is right-footed and has been described as a "pacy winger", as well as an "intelligent and quick" player.
He was previously named as "one of the top three fastest boys in the country", and considers his pace to be one of his key attributes. During his time playing in Arsenal"s youth team, he was used on the left wing—"testing opposition defenders with his searing pace".
Jeffrey attended The John Lyon School in Harrow.
