Club career

[edit]

Brentford

[edit]

After playing for Leatherhead Youth between U6 and U18 level and trialling with West London clubs Chelsea, Fulham and Queens Park Rangers,[5][6][7] Trevitt joined the Brentford B on an extended trial in late 2020.[8] On 11 January 2021, he signed an 18-month contract, with a one-year option,[9][10] as a free agent.[11] During the 2021–22 season, Trevitt trained with the first team, appeared in first team friendlies and was a part of the B team's London Senior Cup-winning squad.[12][13] The option on his contract was exercised in May 2022 and two months later he signed a new two-year contract,[10] with a one-year option.[14]

2022–23 season

[edit]

Trevitt was called into the first team's 2022–23 pre-season and mid-season training camps.[12][15] He made two cup appearances as a substitute during the regular season and was an unused substitute during seven other matches.[16] Trevitt scored five goals in 9 appearances during the B team's 2022–23 Premier League Cup-winning campaign,[16] which included the opener in the 2–0 Final victory over Blackburn Rovers.[17] He finished the B team season with 28 appearances and 16 goals.[18] During the 2023 off-season, Trevitt was promoted into the first team squad and signed a new three-year contract, with a one-year option.[19]

2023–24 season and loan to Exeter City

[edit]

On 14 July 2023, Trevitt joined League One club Exeter City on a season-long loan.[19] A starter during the first half of the season when fit,[16][20] Trevitt's performances and three goals in October 2023 won him the club's Player of the Month award.[21] His brace in a 3–2 EFL Cup fourth round defeat to Middlesbrough on 31 October was recognised with a nomination for the competition's Player of the Round award.[22] On 3 January 2024, Trevitt underwent surgery on a twisted ankle suffered during a 2–0 defeat to Cambridge United on 22 December 2023.[8][23] He was recalled by Brentford five days later and ended the loan on 23 appearances and five goals.[24][25] After returning to fitness, Trevitt was an unused substitute on two occasions during the remainder of the 2023–24 season.[16]

2024–25 season and loan return to Exeter City

[edit]

During a 2024–25 pre-season shortened by a calf injury,[26] Trevitt made three appearances,[27][28] including one at right back.[29] He was again deployed in the position during his first appearance of the regular season,[30] a start in a 1–0 EFL Cup second round victory over Colchester United on 28 August 2024.[31] Following a second EFL Cup start,[31] Trevitt made his Premier League debut as a substitute late in a 3–1 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on 21 September.[8] He was an unused substitute on 11 further occasions during the first half of the 2024–25 season.[16] After recovering from an achilles injury,[32] Trevitt returned to Exeter City on loan for the remainder of the season on 30 January 2025.[18] While carrying a minor ankle injury, he made 12 appearances and scored one goal before suffering a season-ending hamstring injury during a match on 1 April 2025.[31][33]

2025–26 season and loan to Wigan Athletic

[edit]

On 31 July 2025, Trevitt joined League One club Wigan Athletic on a season-long loan.[34] He made 11 appearances before suffering a thigh injury in late September 2025,[35] which required surgery.[36] A hernia problem was discovered during Trevitt's rehabilitation, which also required surgery.[37] He returned to match play in mid-April 2026,[38] but only managed two appearances before suffering a season-ending injury.[35][39] Trevitt made 14 appearances during a mid-table 2025-26 season.[35][40] Trevitt was released by Brentford at the end of the season, but remained with the club during the off-season in order to complete his rehabilitation from injury.[41]

Representative career

[edit]

Trevitt represented the ISFA South team at U17 level and England Futsal at U19 level.[42][43]

Style of play

[edit]

Trevitt has been described "an old school all-round midfielder".[44] "He can build as a six, he can arrive in the box from deeper positions with energy", while "winning the ball back high, protecting the backline" out of possession.[44]

Personal life

[edit]

Trevitt attended St John's School, Leatherhead.[8] In addition to football, he played rugby union as a fly-half and was a member of the Harlequins academy.[8][45]
