Career

Freemantle came through the youth academy at Kidderminster Harriers, signing professional terms in 2019.[ citation needed ] Before Kidderminster he was a scholar at Walsall. While with Kidderminster's U23 side, he won the Midland Football League U21 play-off final. [1]

In February 2021, he extended his contract at Kidderminster until the end of the 2022–23 season. [2] During Kidderminster's run to the FA Cup fourth round in 2022, he was described by team-mate Mark Carrington as the team's "Diego Costa". [3]

On 1 August 2023, Freemantle joined National League North club Gloucester City on a three-month loan. [4] He scored his first and only goal of his loan spell in a 2–0 league win over Rushall Olympic on 28 August. [5]

On 22 September 2023, Freemantle joined National League North club Hereford on a three-month loan. [6] He scored his first goal for Hereford in a 1–0 win over Rochdale in the FA Cup fourth qualifying round on 14 October, [7] and his first league goal one month later in a 4–1 win over Banbury United on 14 November. [8] He returned to Kidderminster at the end of his loan spell in December. [9]

A day after leaving Hereford, Freemantle joined Southern League Premier Division Central club Stourbridge on loan until the end of the season. [10]

Following the end of the 2023/24 campaign, despite Kidderminster's relegation to the National League North and also showing good form at Stourbridge, Freemantle was released. [11] Subsequently it was later announced on 14 June 2024, that he will be returning to Stourbridge on a permanent deal. [12]
