Club career

Marsh began playing football with the youth academy of Barnsley before moving to Sheffield United at the age of 8 where he played as a left-back. He returned to Barnsley's academy in 2014. [3] He signed his first professional contract with the club on 11 September 2020. [4] He made his professional debut with Barnsley coming on in the 78th minute for Matty Wolfe in a 0-1 EFL Championship loss to Bournemouth on 29 January 2022. [5]

He made his senior debut for Barnsley on 29 January 2022, coming on as a substitute in a Championship fixture against AFC Bournemouth. [6]

In September 2022, he joined Scunthorpe United on loan in the National League, followed by a loan to York City in September 2023. [7]

In September 2023, Marsh joined National League club York City on an initial one-month loan deal, [8] which was extended for a further month in October. [9] He made seven appearances for York City before being recalled by Barnsley in November. [10] [11] While on-loan with York, his parent club, Barnsley played Horsham in the FA Cup, drawing the game 3–3. Having returned to Barnsley three days after the cup tie, Marsh featured in the replay which Barnsley won 0-3. As Football Association rules state that only players who are eligible for the initial FA Cup tie can feature in any replay, on 22 November Barnsley were expelled from the competition for fielding an ineligible player. [12]

In January 2025, Marsh signed for Scottish Championship side Raith Rovers on loan. He made 17 league appearances, scoring 3 goals during his spell. [13]

On 26 September 2025, Marsh joined National League club Truro City on a short-term contract until January 2026. [14]

International career

In November 2019, Marsh received a call-up to attend an England U17s training camp held at St George’s Park. [15]
