A Birmingham boy he began his career with Aston Villa. With no luck breaking into the first team he moved on to Leicester City in September 1982. He only played one game at Filbert Street, an FA Cup tie against Notts County in January 1983. Released at the end of that season he moved on to Nuneaton Borough, Stourbridge, Alvechurch and Willenhall Town.

With a number of teams after him he plumped for Tottenham Hotspur. He made his debut at 16, becoming Spurs’ youngest player ever at that time. In a five-year spell, he only made 17 league appearances but did play a part in the 1984 UEFA Cup final victory over Anderlecht. He made a surprise move to Johan Cryuff’s Ajax in 1986. He only played 11 times in the first team and was on the bench, alongside Dennis Bergkamp, as Ajax lost the 1988 European Cup Winners’ Cup final to Mechelen. He played out his career in Australia and South Africa finishing it off with one appearance for Alloa.
