Club career

West Ham United

Having been with Arsenal youth team for eight years, Brown joined West Ham in 2013 as he considered there would be greater opportunities to play football.[3][4] He was first included in a West Ham matchday squad for their UEFA Europa League first qualifying round second leg fixture away to Lusitanos of Andorra on 9 July 2015, remaining an unused substitute in a 1–0 victory (4–0 aggregate).[5] With manager Slaven Bilić putting priority on the team's Premier League performance, he made an array of changes for their third qualifying round second leg away to FC Astra Giurgiu on 6 August, and Brown made his debut as an 80th-minute substitute for Elliot Lee in a 2–1 defeat which saw his team eliminated.[6] On 9 October 2015, Brown joined Chelmsford City on a one-month loan.[7]

Hannover 96 II

On 2 June 2016, Brown announced he had signed for Hannover 96 via his Instagram social media account.[8] His contract was terminated by mutual consent after 18 months in Germany.[9]

Barnet

Brown returned to London and signed for Barnet, but following a long wait for international clearance and the departure of Graham Westley as manager, Brown was released by new manager Martin Allen in March 2018.[10]

Znojmo

On 18 October 2018, Brown joined Czech National Football League side Znojmo.[11]

Cavalry FC

On 30 January 2019, Brown signed for Canadian Premier League side Cavalry FC.[12] In the 2019 Canadian Championship quartfinals, Brown would score the opening goal as Cavalry would upset Major League Soccer side Vancouver Whitecaps, knocking them out of the tournament.[13] In December 2019, Cavalry announced Brown would return to the club for the 2020 season.[14]

VfR Aalen

On 22 October 2020, Brown signed a one-year contract with Regionalliga side VfR Aalen.[15][16]
