Career

Shrewsbury Town

Barnett joined the Shrewsbury Town youth system in 2007, [2] and received his first call-up to the senior squad by manager Paul Hurst on 26 December 2016, where he was an unused substitute in an away EFL League One match at Bolton Wanderers. [3] He signed a two-and-a-half-year professional contract with the club in February 2017 - with the option of a further year - whilst still a first-year scholar. [4]

The following season, Barnett made his professional debut as a substitute in a 3−0 victory against West Bromwich Albion U21s in an EFL Trophy group-stage match, coming on in the 67th minute in place of Lenell John-Lewis. [5] He made his English Football League debut on 23 October 2018, coming on for the last two minutes in place of Greg Docherty in a 3−1 home win against Barnsley, under Hurst's replacement, John Askey. [6]

Barnett joined National League North side AFC Telford United on an initial one-month loan on 10 November 2018. [7] He scored his first career goal on 15 December to open a 4–3 win at Farsley Celtic in the first round of the FA Trophy. [8] He returned to his parent club to play in an EFL Trophy tie against Port Vale, playing the whole ninety minutes and scoring in the resulting penalty-shoot out, as Shrewsbury bowed out of the competition following a 1−1 draw. [9] On 10 January 2019, he returned to AFC Telford for the rest of the season. [10]

In May 2019, it was confirmed that Shrewsbury had taken up the one-year option on Barnett's contract, committing him to the club until summer 2020. [11] On 7 November that year, he joined Telford on loan once again, until the end of the season. [12]

After the 2019–20 National League was ended early due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Barnett returned to his parent club and signed a new one-year contract extension with the option of an additional year in June 2020. [13] He scored his first goal for Shrewsbury Town in a 3−0 victory over Newcastle United Under−21s in an EFL Trophy group-stage match on 23 September of the same year. [14]

On 8 February 2021, Barnett joined National League North leaders Gloucester City on a one-month loan deal. [15]

On 18 March 2021, Barnett joined National League side Solihull Moors on a one-month loan. [16]

On 12 May 2021 it was announced that he would leave Shrewsbury at the end of the season, following the expiry of his contract. [17]

Solihull Moors

After spending time on loan with the club the following season, Barnett returned to Solihull Moors in June 2021, on a two-year permanent deal following his release from Shrewsbury. [18]
