The 27-year-old enjoyed a successful spell with Diamonds between 2016 and 2017 when he scored 40 goals in 73 appearances.

 

The much- travelled forward began his career with the now defunct Rushden & Diamonds and was a scholar there when he joined Banbury United on `work experience` in November 2009.

 

He stayed with Banbury for the rest of that season, making 31 appearances and scoring 3 goals.

 

He impressed enough to be awarded a pro contract by the Diamonds in the summer of 2010 and then re-joined Banbury early in season 2010/11 on loan and made 21 appearances, scoring 8 goals before his loan spell ended in mid-November.

 

He was then loaned out by Rushden to then-Conference North side Nuneaton Borough and on his return to Nene Park, he made his Conference debut for Diamonds in February of 2011, going on to make a total of 11 appearances for them through to the end of that season.

 

Upon the club`s demise in the summer of 2011, he moved to then-Conference National side Tamworth and made 24 appearances in 2011/12 before joining Hemel Hempstead Town on loan for the final two months of the season.

 

A permanent move to Oxford City followed in the summer of 2012 but he was released by them at the end of November whereupon he immediately signed for Kettering Town, although he only made one appearance for them before opting in December 2012 to return for his third spell with Banbury in which he made 22 appearances scoring 4 goals through to the end of that season to bring his Puritans career total to 74 appearances and 15 goals.

 

He moved on to Corby Town in the summer of 2013 and has since played for Stamford AFC, Belper Town, Daventry Town, Diamonds, Alfreton Town, St Neots Town and Stratford, where he was part of the squad that reached the Southern Premier Central play-offs last season.
