Ethan Freemantle (born 6 February 2000) is an English footballer who most recently played as a striker for Southern League Premier Division Central club Stourbridge.

Career

Freemantle came through the youth academy at Kidderminster Harriers, signing professional terms in 2019. Before Kidderminster he was a scholar at Walsall. While with Kidderminster's U23 side, he won the Midland Football League U21 play-off final.[1]

In February 2021, he extended his contract at Kidderminster until the end of the 2022–23 season.[2] During Kidderminster's run to the FA Cup fourth round in 2022, he was described by team-mate Mark Carrington as the team's "Diego Costa".[3]

On 1 August 2023, Freemantle joined National League North club Gloucester City on a three-month loan.[4] He scored his first and only goal of his loan spell in a 2–0 league win over Rushall Olympic on 28 August.[5]

On 22 September 2023, Freemantle joined National League North club Hereford on a three-month loan.[6] He scored his first goal for Hereford in a 1–0 win over Rochdale in the FA Cup fourth qualifying round on 14 October,[7] and his first league goal one month later in a 4–1 win over Banbury United on 14 November.[8] He returned to Kidderminster at the end of his loan spell in December.[9]

A day after leaving Hereford, Freemantle joined Southern League Premier Division Central club Stourbridge on loan until the end of the season.[10]

Following the end of the 2023–24 campaign, despite Kidderminster's relegation to the National League North and also showing good form at Stourbridge, Freemantle was released.[11] Subsequently it was later announced on 14 June 2024, that he would be returning to Stourbridge on a permanent deal.[12] On 11 September 2025, Stourbridge announced on social media that Freemantle had departed the club and was relocating to Dubai.[13][14]
