Career

Colclough was born in the town of Burslem in Stoke-on-Trent.[2] He started his career with Crewe Alexandra progressing through the academy to sign a two-year scholarship in the summer of 2011.[3] He was promoted to the first team in September 2012, after impressing in pre-season games and for the under-21s.[4] He made his professional debut for Crewe on 22 September 2012, in a 1–1 draw with Leyton Orient in Football League One, coming on as a substitute for Brendon Daniels.[5] He scored his first goal for the club on 26 January 2013, in a 3–1 defeat to AFC Bournemouth.[6] On 17 August, he scored twice in a 2–1 win against Tranmere Rovers.[7]

On 23 November 2013 Colclough was tasered by police after becoming involved in an altercation with a night club bouncer and was subsequently found guilty of affray and ordered to pay £580 in fines and costs.[8] After an unsuccessful trial with Wolverhampton Wanderers, on Thursday 6 August 2015 Colclough signed a new two-year contract with Crewe to take him through to the summer of 2017.[9]

On 1 January 2017, Wigan Athletic activated a recall clause in Colclough's loan deal with Milton Keynes Dons and returned to his parent club.[15] On 21 November 2017, he scored two goals before being substituted to see the birth of his son.[16]
