[7] He scored his first goal for Nuneaton in a 4–0 home win against Stourbridge on 17 September and went on to make 11 appearances and score 3 goals. [8] He was recalled by Walsall in January 2020 due to a number of injuries to first-team players. [9]
On 2 March 2020, Candlin moved to Alvechurch on a youth loan. [10]
He signed for Northern Premier League Premier League side Hyde United on a free transfer in September 2021.
