Steven Simpson (born April 5, 2000) is a Canadian soccer player who plays as a forward for Danish club Esbjerg fB.

Club career

On July 11 Simpson was loaned to Danish 1st Division club Esbjerg fB on a half-season deal until December 31.[3] However, only two months later, on September 8, 2021, the club confirmed that he had signed a permanent deal until June 2024 with Esbjerg.[4]
