Agyakwa makes a Swifts move

Brentwood Town have announced that Marlon Agyakwa has made a loan move to Pitching In isthmian North side Heybridge Swifts.

Marlon joined Brentwood in March 2024- although he had actually spent time with the Blues previously, a four game loan spell from Aveley during the 22-23 season which saw him score three goals. He has played only once for Brentwood this season, as he has spent most of the campaign with Hullbridge Sports. He made forty seven appearances last season, helping the Blues to take the Pitching In Isthmian North title, and fourteen times as he helped them to the Play Off Final in 23-24. 

The winger moved to Brentwood from Brightlingsea Regent, where he had played twenty five times, with six goals.

 Marlon came through the ranks at Southend United, and after leaving the Shrimpers stayed in the area with Canvey Island. He had two spells with the Gulls, the latest in 2018-19- when he played forty six times- after initially playing for three seasons. He has also spent time with Oxford City and Didcot Town, and played for Tilbury, making thirty four appearances and scoring seven times. His time at Aveley began at the start of the 22-23 season, but was hampered by injury. 

After that Brentwood loan he moved on to Stowmarket Town, where he managed eleven appearances, scoring once, before moving on to Grays Athletic, where he played fourteen times as the season came to a close
