Marshall helped his new club to an emphatic 9–0 victory away to local rivals Peterborough Northern Star in the Northants FA Hillier Senior Cup.[6] Willock made his Southern League Premier Division Central debut on 28 September 2019 in a home fixture against Leiston, Marshall came on as a substitute and scored on his debut, helping his new club to an 8–1 victory.[7]

Following a lack of first team opportunities at Peterborough Sports, Willock signed for Northern Premier League Premier Division side Grantham Town on 17 January 2020.[8]

On 31 July 2020, Willock joined Finnish Kakkonen side Kemi City on a two-year deal.[9]
