Sean Shields
Date joined: 6th October 2023
Sean has had a rich career since joining Tottenham Hotspur as an eight year-old and spending eight years as a youth player with the north London giants.
Whilst born in Enfield, he qualified to play for Northern Ireland through his father and made two Under-21 appearances for the Irish.
Moving into senior football, he found his first real home at St Albans City, where he made 71 appearances and scored 13 times in a three season spell. In 2013, he earned a move into the Football League when he joined Dagenham and Redbridge, then of League Two. In a two year term, he made 13 appearances, but was also loaned back to St Albans with a further loan move to Ebbsfleet United, where in 2015 he really put down roots with a successful five season term in which he amassed 116 appearances, scoring 15 times.
Sean’s time at Stonebridge Road was also punctuated with various loan moves before departing for Weymouth in 2020 where he spent two seasons making 66 appearances (seven goals).
His recent career has taken him to Barnet and Scunthorpe United before starting this term at Rayners Lane.
