Dominic James Samuel (born 1 April 1994) is an English professional footballer who plays for Ipswich Town, on loan from Reading.
As part of the Reading Academy, Samuel enjoyed a prolific start to the 2011–12 season, scoring 13 goals in 14 games for the under-18 side. As a result, he was rewarded with his first professional contract on 17 December 2011. He made his debut for Reading coming on as a 72nd-minute substitute, for Garath McCleary, in Reading's 3–0 defeat away to Sunderland on 11 December 2012. On 3 January 2013 Samuel joined League One side Colchester United on a one-month youth loan deal. After making two appearances, he returned to Reading on 31 January. On 9 January 2014, Samuel joined team mate Lawson D'Ath at Dagenham & Redbridge on a one-month youth loan. He made his debut three days later against Fleetwood Town though he was forced off during the first half with a knee injury. Reading later confirmed that his loan had been cut short as the damage needed to be repaired surgically.
On 29 January 2015, Samuel joined Coventry City on loan till 28 April 2015, scoring on his debut against Rochdale.
However, after a promising start, he fractured his ankle on 1 April in a 0–1 defeat to Leyton Orient thus ruling him out for the remainder of the season. He was sent back to Reading in order to start treatment in hope that he will be fit during pre-season.
On 13 November 2015, Samuel joined League One side Gillingham on an emergency loan deal until 10 December. On 9 December, Samuel had his loan spell with Gillingham extended until 2 January 2016.
