Club career

Having played for Merseyside clubs Liverpool and Everton, Garrett joined Blackburn Rovers's academy at the age of nine. [2] [3] He signed his first professional contract in March 2020. [3]

Garrett featured for Blackburn in the 2021–22 pre-season, but was unable to break into the first team that year. [4] He again featured in pre-season in July 2022, and there was interest from clubs to sign him on loan. [5] However, he stayed with Blackburn Rovers, and made his professional debut in an EFL Cup tie against Bradford City in August 2022. [5] He went on to make his Championship debut in October of the same year, in a 2–0 win over Sunderland. [6] Following his league debut, manager Jon Dahl Tomasson heaped praise onto Garrett, particularly praising his development since the beginning of the season. [7]

In March 2023, Garrett signed a new four-and-a-half year contract with Rovers, [8] talking of his aims to help the club return to the Premier League. [9]

He scored his first goal for Blackburn in a 4–3 win over Walsall in the EFL Cup on 8 August 2023. [10] He was named as Blackburn's Young Player of the Year for the 2023–24 season. [11]

On 3 August 2024, Garrett joined League One side Bristol Rovers on a season-long loan deal. [12]

International career

Garrett has represented England at under-15 and under-16 level. [2]
