Club career

[5] [6] During this loan spell, he was given permission to be part of the Rotherham United squad for the EFL Trophy, and made his club debut as a substitute in the 6–0 win against Doncaster Rovers on 7 September 2021. [7] He joined Farsley Celtic on loan in February 2022, helping them avoid relegation. [8] Gratton was released by Rotherham at the end of the 2021–22 season. [9]

Following his release from Rotherham United, Gratton returned to Farsley Celtic on a permanent basis. In October 2022, he departed to join NPL Premier Division side Belper Town. [10]

Following a season with Whitby Town, he returned to Belper Town in August 2024. [11] The following month however, he joined Worksop Town having trained with the club in the prior pre-season. [12]
