Hughes was born in Crewe, Cheshire. He made his debut for Crewe Alexandra in the Football League Two game against Stockport County at the Alexandra Stadium on 30 April 2011, which ended in a 2–0 win for Crewe. He came on as a late substitute for Ashley Westwood.[3] Hughes joined Chasetown of the Northern Premier League on a short-term loan on 6 January 2012,[4] and joined their divisional rivals Nantwich Town on a month's loan on 2 March.[5] He was released by Crewe at the end of the 2011/12 season,[6] subsequently rejoining Nantwich Town on a permanent contract.
