Jake Gosling (born 11 August 1993) is a footballer who plays as a winger for Torquay United. Born and raised in England, he plays internationally for Gibraltar, where his father was born. With two goals, he is currently Gibraltar's joint all-time leading scorer since joining UEFA along with Lee Casciaro.
Born in Oxford, Gosling signed for Swindon Town Centre of Excellence as a ten-year-old. A year later he signed for Plymouth Argyle Centre of Excellence after he moved with his family to Newquay in Cornwall. He was released by Argyle at the age of 16 whereupon he enrolled at Hartpury College. He graduated through the Exeter City youth team to sign professional terms under Paul Tisdale in April 2012.
He scored a "stunning goal" against Dorchester Town in pre-season, and joined Conference South side Dorchester on loan in September; the initial one-month loan deal was later extended until January. During this loan spell he scored the goal that knocked Exeter's rivals Plymouth Argyle out of the FA Cup on 4 November.
He made his debut for Exeter on 12 January 2013, as a late substitute for Steve Tully in a 3–0 win over Southend United at St James Park. He scored his first goal for the club to complete a 3–0 home win over Northampton Town in League Two on 2 March. After the match, Gosling said he hoped to become a first team regular at the club.
