Career

On 24 August 2020, he began his senior career in non-league when he signed for North West Counties Football League Division One North side Bury AFC.[3] He only made two appearances for the club before he went on to sign for Chester on a two-year youth scholarship.[5] In August 2021 he transferred to North West Counties Premier Division side Avro on dual-registration.[6] He made 21 appearances for the club in all competitions, scoring twice, including once in has last game against Vauxhall Motors.[6] On 18 November 2021, he was on the move again when he stepped up a division to sign for Northern Premier League Division One West side Clitheroe.[6]
