Career
[edit]Grimsby Town
[edit]Braithwaite came through the youth academy at Grimsby Town beginning with the under-9's. He was ever present in the youth team and reserve team until 2022. In April 2022, Braithwaite signed his first professional contract with the club.[2]
On 30 August 2022, Braithwaite made his full professional debut against Derby County in the EFL Trophy.[3]
He moved to Whitby Town on a one-month loan on 25 November 2022.[4] Throughout his stay at the club he made 10 appearances and scored 1 goal. His loan was extended numerous times and would eventually be until the end of the 2022–23 season.[4][5][6]
Following the end of Whitby's season, Braithwaite returned to Grimsby and made his full league debut on 25 April 2023, coming on as a late substitute in a 2–0 win over Crewe Alexandra.[7]
On 18 August 2023, Braithwaite joined Northern Premier League club Stafford Rangers on loan until January 2024.[8]
Braithwaite was recalled by Grimsby on 24 November 2023.[9] He was released at the end of the 2023–24 season.[10]
Non-League
[edit]Following his release by Grimsby, Braithwaite began the season with Gainsborough Trinity, however following a trial at Scunthorpe United it was announced he had joined both clubs on dual registration terms.[11] In October 2024, in search of more game time, he joined Cleethorpes Town, continuing to also remain registered with Scunthorpe United. His dual-registration ended in February 2025 to allow him to sign a new longer-term contract with Cleethorpes Town.[12]
