He had been in the youth system at Fulham until 2009, before spells with Staines Town and Hampton & Richmond Borough.[2] Having come through the ranks at QPR, Fitzpatrick was signed by AFC Wimbledon on 23 September 2014 by Alan Reeves as part of the club's newly formed under-21 side, after impressing as a trialist.[3] He first appeared as an unused substitute in the 2–0 away loss to Wycombe Wanderers on 18 October 2014.[4] He made his football league debut on 28 December 2014, coming on as a 76th-minute substitute against Exeter City which ended in a 4–1 victory for the "Dons".[5] He scored his first goal for Wimbledon in January 2016. Fitzpatrick signed for Barrow on 28 June 2017 on a 1-year deal.

After leaving Barrow, he had spells at Dorking Wanderers, Kingstonian and Walton Casuals before signing for Southern League side Farnborough in February 2020.[6]
