Jack Powell (footballer)

John "Jack" Powell (25 March 186016 March 1947) was a Welsh association footballer who played as a full-back for Newton Heath in the late 1880s.

Born in Ffrwd, near Wrexham, Powell began his football career with Druids in 1879 before transferring to Bolton Wanderers in October 1883. He was forced to leave Bolton in 1885 due to a transgression of FA Cup rules regarding professionals. He then signed for Newton Heath in 1886, eventually becoming club captain. By the time he left the club in 1890, he had made 46 competitive appearances, scoring one goal.

Over the span of his career, Powell made 15 appearances for Wales, five of them while with Newton Heath.
