Playing career

Hickman started his career in the youth system at Coventry City before making his debut in an EFL Trophy game against Forest Green Rovers.[3]

On 13 October 2017, Jak initially joined Mickleover Sports on a one-month loan with fellow Sky Blue Bilal Sayoud.[4] Then in March 2018 he rejoined the non-league side on loan for the remainder of the season.[5]

During the 2018–19 season Hickman had loan spells with Ashton United[6] and Hereford.[7]

On 4 July 2019, Coventry City announced the fining and placing of Hickman on the transfer list, following disparaging comments made against the club made by Hickman in a video that circulated on social media.[8]

Hickman joined Southern League Premier Central side Bromsgrove Sporting on loan on 22 November 2019.[9]

On 6 August 2020, Hickman signed for Bolton Wanderers, on a initial one-year deal.[10]
