“ Playing History:

Northampton Town academy: Under 12-15
At a young age i was lucky enough to be involved in a professional set up like Northampton Town. At this club i was training 4 times a week, playing every week against professional opposition. This club was great for me in my development as a player and person, also to get the experience of a professional environment from such a young age has been highly beneficial.


Reading FC Academy Age: Under 16-18
After playing at Northampton I had the chance to trial with championship side Reading FC. After 3 months i was offered a YTS contract and continued my development through a professional environment. Reading was great learning experience mentally and physically. I experienced it all at this club with injuries which saw me miss 2 months of playing, to then coming back after rehab to going straight into training with first team players. Unfortunately after 2 years i was not offered a professional contract so I had to depart from them.
Whilst at Reading I played in numerous professional youth team games including; Chelsea FC, Arsenal, Luton, Watford, Crawley.

Age: 18-20
Ware FC
-I was offered the opportunity to trial with a number of professional clubs; MK Dons, Plymouth and Cambridge Utd, however after not receiving a professional contract with Reading I decided the best step for myself as a defender and for my development was to go and get guaranteed first team football, as I have always felt I was ready to make the transition into senior football.
I joined Ryman league side Ware FC, where I am currently playing. I feel the move has definitely helped my transition into senior football and has got me to a stage where I am ready to push on to a higher level again.


Age: 20-present day

Pro Direct Soccer Academy ‘Season Pro’ Spain
Having played two senior years for Ware FC, representing them in both FA Cup & FA Vase, I made the decision to improve my football and was offered a season contract playing with the Pro Direct Soccer Academy to live and play in Spain. After being in Spain for a few months i had picked up interest from clubs such as Cordoba & Almeria in which was invited on trial for the remaining 2/3 months of 2015.
On my return to Spain in January i was called and asked to attend a trial in Leòn in which i have been for the past month. After a month of trials i have had numerous contract offers from Tecera sides and segued B sides. Unfortunately none contract matched my demands so I will be heading back to England to continue my development training every day and keeping fit.
