Player Profile:

Winger Aaron began his youth career with Rainham Kenilworth and Lordswood before joining Gillingham. He captained the U18s and turned professional in the summer of 2017, making his first-team debut on 29.8.17, coming off the bench in a 2-1 home win in the Checkatrade Trophy against Southend United.

He went on loan to Margate in January 2018 and made his debut in a 2-0 home win over Thurrock on 23.1.18. He made 12 appearances in total for Margate.

He signed a new one-year contract with the Gills in July 2018 and was offered another new deal at the end of the 2018-19 season. He rejected the offer and joined Hythe Town in August 2019, signing for Ramsgate in January 2020. In September 2020, he moved to Folkestone Invicta.

Since 2021-22, he played for Hollands & Blair Reserves but, after manager Luke Jessop was promoted to first-team boss in January 2024, Aaron followed him and played for the first-team.
