Playing career

Seaman began his career as a youth player at West Ham United. He was released in 2016 and joined AFC Bournemouth,[1] playing initially in their under-18 team. He joined Weymouth in the Southern League on a youth loan in November 2017, scoring on his debut against Kings Langley.[2]

He signed his first professional contract with Bournemouth in 2018.[1] In January 2019, he was loaned to Scottish Championship club Dundee United until the end of the 2018–19 season.[3] He made his debut in a 1–0 defeat against Ayr United.[4]

Seaman was on trial with EFL League Two club Exeter City in July 2019, playing in a pre-season friendly against Taunton Town.[5] In September 2019, Bournemouth loaned him to Eastleigh in the National League until the following January.[6] After making 24 appearances for Eastleigh, he returned to Bournemouth having been ruled out for the next three months with a hamstring injury.[7] Seaman went on loan again at the end of the January 2020 transfer window, joining Maidstone United in National League South until the end of the 2019–20 season.[8] They were willing to sign him while he was still recovering from injury, as it was at no cost to the club.[9] He made his Maidstone debut as a substitute against Eastbourne Borough on 14 March,[10] just prior to football being suspended due to the coronavirus pandemic.[11]

Seaman was released by AFC Bournemouth at the end of his contract in June 2020.[12] On 1 October 2020, he joined League One club Doncaster Rovers on a one-year deal and was subsequently loaned out to National League South side Maidstone United.[13]
