Playing career

A product of the Rochdale Academy, Adshead began training with the first team at the age of 14. He attracted scouts from Manchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, Barcelona and Bayern Munich.[2]

In 2016, he made his debut for Rochdale Under-18s aged just 15. Adshead travelled with the first team during a pre-season camp to Tenerife in July 2017.[3]
