Contents

Magloire began his career at Blackburn Rovers, making his debut in the Championship in March 2019. He subsequently spent time on loan at Rochdale, Hartlepool United, Motherwell, and Northampton Town. He joined Northampton Town on a three-year deal in July 2022 and was a member of the 2022–23 League Two promotion-winning squad. He was out of action with ruptured ligaments from February 2023 to July 2024. After a spell without a club, he played non-League football with Workington from November 2025. He returned to the English Football League with Port Vale in January 2026.

Career

Blackburn Rovers

Magloire signed a two-year professional deal with Blackburn Rovers in June 2017 after making 21 appearances for the Under-18s in 2015–16. [3] He had first joined the Academy at the age of nine. [4] He signed a new three-and-a-half-year deal in February 2019. [5] He helped Damien Johnson's development squad to secure the Premier League 2 Division 2 title in 2017–18. [6] He captained the Under-23s to victory over Burnley in the Lancashire Senior Cup the following season. [6] On 12 March 2019, Magloire started for Blackburn in the Championship and helped keep a clean sheet in a 3–0 victory over Wigan Athletic. [7]

On 8 August 2019, Magloire joined League One club Rochdale on loan for the 2019–20 season. [6] Blackburn manager Tony Mowbray said that Magloire was not yet ready for Championship football after struggling against Sheffield Wednesday when he had faced Steven Fletcher and Atdhe Nuhiu. [8] On 4 January, he was substituted 30 minutes into a 1–1 draw with Newcastle United in an FA Cup third round tie at Spotland after being unable to handle Ghana international winger Christian Atsu whilst playing at right-back. [9] The decision paid off for manager Brian Barry-Murphy, as Dale earned a lucrative replay by drawing the game. [10] On 29 January, he was recalled by Blackburn after sustaining a groin injury, which subsequently required surgery and saw him spend a lengthy spell on the sidelines. [11] [12]

Magloire sustained a hamstring injury in late September 2020, ending his prospects of joining a Football League club on loan. [13] On 6 November 2020, Magloire signed for National League side Hartlepool United on loan until 9 January. [14] Hartlepool had suffered injuries to first-choice centre-back partners Gary Liddle and Timi Odusina. [15] He played 10 National League games for Hartlepool, not missing a match during his time at Victoria Park. [16] Pools manager Dave Challinor had hoped to re-sign Magloire on loan in January to further help with their promotion push, though Rovers needed him as cover following injuries to other centre-backs. [17] Rovers went on to loan him out to a different club. [18]

On 2 February 2021, Magloire joined Scottish Premiership side Motherwell on loan until the end of the 2020–21 season. [19] [20] Well manager Graham Alexander said he would provide "competition for the right side of defence". [21] Magloire featured 12 times for the Steelmen, who were reportedly looking at bringing him back to Fir Park after his loan spell ended. [22] He said his time in Scottish football had "toughened me up and made me into a better player". [23] He featured five times for Rovers in the first half of the 2021–22 campaign. [24] The club took up a 12-month option on his contract in May 2022. [25] However, his first-team opportunities at Ewood Park were limited by the emergence of Hayden Carter and the success of other loan signings. [26]

Northampton Town

On 18 January 2022, Magloire joined League Two side Northampton Town on loan until the end of the 2021–22 season. [27] [28] Manager Jon Brady said the Cobblers had beaten a League One club in the race to secure his signature. [29] His loan spell was ended early by a shoulder injury sustained in March. [30] On 28 July 2022, Magloire returned to Northampton Town for an undisclosed fee, signing a three-year contract. [31] [32] [33] Brady said he had shown "huge potential". [34] He was ruled out for an entire season when he ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament and medial collateral ligament in February 2023, [35] finally making his return to fitness in July 2024 after 17 months out of action. [36] He made six league starts in the 2024–25 campaign. [37] Magloire was one of 11 players that left Sixfields upon the expiry of their contracts in June 2025. [38]

In July 2025, he joined Bradford City on trial, participating in the club's training camp in Austria. [39] He also trained with the Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) to maintain his fitness levels. [40]

Workington

On 8 November 2025, Magloire joined Northern Premier League Premier Division club Workington on non-contract terms. [41] Manager Billy Barr had coached him at the Blackburn Rovers Academy. [42] Magloire was named man of the match on his debut, a 3–2 win over Hyde United at Borough Park, the first home game that Reds had won that season. [43] He departed the club on 26 January 2026, having been offered a chance to return to the Football League. [44] He had previously had a trial with a Scottish Championship club, believed to be Ayr United. [45]

Port Vale

Magloire began training with Port Vale, who were managed by former Northampton boss Jon Brady. [46] On 30 January 2026, he signed a short-term deal, with an option to extend. [47]

Style of play

Magloire is an extremely pacey defender. [48] He can play at centre-back or right-back. [49] His top speed was recorded at 10.6 metres per second, making him as fast as Kylian Mbappé. [50]
