Career

Brighton & Hove Albion

Maguire-Drew was born in Crawley, West Sussex. As a child he played for local side Oakwood F.C. before being offered a trial at the youth team of Brighton & Hove Albion where he signed a two-year scholarship. [3] In April 2016, whilst still an under-18 player, he joined local Isthmian League Division One South side Worthing on a youth loan until the end of the season. [4] He scored an impressive eight goals in six games, helping Worthing to win the play-offs and promotion as they beat Faversham Town in the final. [5]

In July 2016, he signed his first professional contract with Brighton, and later in the month he signed for National League side Dagenham & Redbridge on loan for an initial six-month period. [6] He scored on his debut for the club in a 3–0 win against Southport on the first day of the season. [7] In January 2017, the loan was extended until the end of the season after scoring eight goals in twenty-nine appearances. [8] He continued to remain a first team regular and helped Dagenham to a fifth-place finish where they eventually lost out to Forest Green Rovers in the play-off semi-finals. [9] He made a total of forty-eight appearances for the Daggers, scoring sixteen times and won the Young Player of the Year award. [10]

In July 2017, he signed for newly promoted EFL League Two side Lincoln City on a season-long loan deal. [11] He made his league debut in the 2–2 draw with Wycombe Wanderers, replacing Josh Ginnelly as a second-half substitute. [9] In January 2018 he joined another League Two team, Coventry City, on a half-season loan.

On 1 August 2018, he joined Wrexham on loan for the 2018–19 season. [12] He made his debut for the club on the opening day of the 2018–19 season during a 1–0 victory over Dover Athletic. [13] He returned to Brighton in December 2018. [14]

Leyton Orient

In January 2019, he joined Leyton Orient on a two-year deal for an undisclosed fee. [15] Maguire-Drew was part of the Orient side that won the National League and finished runners-up in the FA Trophy. [16]

He joined Crawley Town on loan until the end of the season on 18 January 2021. [17]

At the end of the 2020–21 season, Maguire-Drew was released by Orient and at the end of his tenure with the O's said "I can't speak highly enough of my time at Orient, but I was a bit disappointed with how it ended," [18] [19]

Woking

Maguire-Drew joined Woking in August 2021, following a short-term trial period. [20] He went onto feature seven times, scoring once for The Cards before leaving the club three months later via mutual consent. [21]

Grimsby Town

On 29 November 2021, Maguire-Drew signed an 18 month contract with Grimsby Town. [22] On 5 June 2022, Maguire-Drew scored a 111th minute winner as Grimsby defeated Solihull Moors in the 2022 National League play-off final to secure an immediate return to the Football League. [23]

Yeovil Town

On 16 December 2022, Maguire-Drew signed for National League side Yeovil Town on an initial one-month loan deal, with the club announcing that personal terms had been agreed to sign him permanently during the January transfer window, subject to the completion of a satisfactory medical. [24] Shortly after the announcement by Yeovil, Grimsby denied that any deal was in place for Maguire-Drew to join on a permanent basis and stipulated that a one month loan was the only thing agreed, but stated that informal talks over a permanent deal had happened. [25] A month later Maguire-Drew officially departed Grimsby by mutual consent, [26] and subsequently joined Yeovil Town permanently signing an 18-month contract. [27]

On 22 December 2023, Maguire-Drew joined National League side Barnet on loan until the end of the 2023–24 season, with the option of a free permanent transfer subject to terms. [28]
