Career

A former pupil at Central Lancaster High School, Bailey joined Morecambe's youth ranks aged 13, and captained their reserve team before signing his first professional contract on 12 May 2015.[5] He was first included in a matchday squad on 22 August of that year, when he was an unused substitute in the Shrimps' 3–3 League Two draw away to Portsmouth.[6] Bailey made his debut on 1 September in a 2–0 win over Walsall in the Football League Trophy first round at the Globe Arena, replacing Alex Kenyon for the final 18 minutes.[7]

After his release from Morecambe and having spent the second half of 15/16 on loan at Kendal Town he signed permanently for the Mintcakes for 16/17 before signing for hometown club Lancaster City for the 17/18 Season along with his elder brother Sam.
