Playing career

Grant is a former professional footballer who played as a central midfielder. He began his football career at Swindon Town , where he was named captain of the youth team.

Grant's professional career began in June 2012, when he signed a two-year contract with Sheffield Wednesday, under the management of Dave Jones . During his time with the club, Grant played for the Sheffield Wednesday Development Squad in the U21 Development League, where he scored 13 goals in 24 games in the 2012-2013 season.

In March 2013, Grant was loaned out to Gillingham , where he made his debut for the club on 27 April 2013. He played 70 minutes in their title-winning game against Burton Albion at the Pirelli Stadium. [2]

Grant was then loaned out to Maidenhead United, where he made a promising start by scoring the winning goal on his debut in the fourth round of the 2013–14 FA Trophy. He ended his loan spell with a return of twelve goals in 37 appearances, which helped the team avoid relegation.

Grant then moved on to play for Bromley in the 2014-15 season, where he made 21 appearances. He was then loaned out to Farnborough for the remainder of the season, where he scored 10 goals in 32 appearances.

Grant went on to play for Hayes & Yeading United and Chippenham Town before joining Thatcham Town. As well as securing victory in the 2017-18 FA Vase at Wembley Stadium, Grant played a key role in Thatcham Town's win of the 2017–18 Hellenic Football League in the same season.

In June 2022, Grant joined Ascot United. He played a vital role, in a historic season, for the club securing the 2022–23 Combined Counties Football League title with a record-breaking 102 points as well winning the 2022-23 FA Vase at Wembley Stadium.
