Early career

Saunders joined local club Barnard Castle at the age of 6 or 7, leaving at under-14s after the club folded.[1] He occasionally played rugby for a local club and then began working full-time in an Indian restaurant.[1] The restaurant entered a team into a football competition, which they won.[1] Saunders then began playing Sunday League football, before signing for Darlington Railway Athletic, initially at under-18 level but then for the senior team.[1] He then played for Bishop Auckland and Durham City.[1] He then signed for Darlington, making his debut in January 2017.[2] Whilst at Darlington he had loan spells at Ryhope Colliery Welfare and Dunston UTS.[1] In total he scored 11 goals in 66 league games for Darlington.[3]

Fleetwood Town

He signed for Fleetwood Town in January 2019 for an undisclosed fee, on a Шаблон:Frac-year contract, and was immediately loaned back to Darlington.[4][5]

He made his first-team debut for Fleetwood on 3 September 2019 in the EFL Trophy.[6] He scored his first goals for Fleetwood when he scored twice in an EFL Trophy tie against Carlisle United on 1 September 2020,[7] and his first league goal followed in a 2–1 defeat to Rochdale on 3 October 2020.[8] On 6 October 2020 Saunders scored a hat-trick in the EFL Trophy against Aston Villa U21s.[9]

Bristol Rovers

On 25 June 2021, Saunders agreed to join Bristol Rovers on a two-year deal from the expiration of his Fleetwood contract. Saunders joined former Fleetwood teammates Paul Coutts and Sam Finley in joining former manager Joey Barton that summer.[12][13] On 7 August 2021, Saunders made his debut for the club in a 2–1 opening day defeat to Mansfield Town,[14] playing the full match on account of the fact that he was the club's only fit striker.[15] On 17 August 2021, Saunders scored his first goal for the club with the only goal in a victory over Oldham Athletic, the club's first win of the season, heading home a cross from Harry Anderson via a deflection.[16] After suffering an injury during an aerial collision in a match against Bradford City on 16 October, Saunders was ruled out until the new year with torn ankle ligaments.[17] On 29 January 2022, Saunders made his return to action from the bench as he assisted Rovers' late winner to defeat Walsall.[18]
