Jones came from the Peterborough United academy. He made his first-team debut, aged 16, against Arsenal U21s in an EFL Trophy match in October 2019, signing his first professional contract on his 17th birthday.[2] Manager Darren Ferguson stated that Jones "must be the quickest player I've ever managed and I've managed some quick ones. He's a talent, there's no doubt about that."[3][4] In his second appearance and first start he scored his first goal for the club in an EFL Trophy tie against Cambridge United on 12 November 2019.[5] The striker went on to score his second goal in as many games, scoring against Stevenage in an FA Cup replay on 19 November 2019.[6] He went on to make his league debut on 23 November 2019 against Burton Albion.[7]
