Kenji Joel Gorré (born 29 September 1994) is a Dutch footballer who plays as a winger for Swansea City. He is the son of former footballer Dean Gorré.
Born in Spijkenisse, Netherlands, Gorré lived in Netherlands before moving to England, when his father moved to Huddersfield Town when he was four and lived in England ever since. Gorré attended North Cestrian Grammar School. Gorré’s decision to play football was supported by his parents.
In 2002, Gorré moved from Manchester City Academy to Manchester United Academy. When Gorré was fifteen, Gorré became a transfer target from Arsenal and Chelsea. Despite, Gorré remained at the club and two years later, on 26 July 2011, Gorré scored in a 7–0 win over County Tyrone in the Milk Cup. The following month, Gorré began to start his first year scholars at the academy.
Then in February 2013, Gorré went on trial at Scottish Premier League champions Celtic, but he did not sign on a permanent basis. This came after Gorré was released from the Manchester United Academy.
In March 2013, Gorré began training with Premier League side Swansea City. Gorré made an impressive performance at the trial and convinced the Swansea City management to give him a one-year contract.
Shortly signing for Swansea City, Gorré was featured in the pre-season friendly matches and scored two goals against Excelsior and Haaglandia. Despite being given forty-six shirt, Gorré was sent to the Swansea City Reserves and played there throughout the 2013–14 season.
