Career

[edit]

Macnab began his career in the youth system at Brentford, before signing his first professional contract with AFC Wimbledon after impressing during a trial period at the club.[2] That same day he joined Leatherhead on loan.[3] On 13 November 2019, Macnab made his debut for the club in a 3–1 EFL Trophy loss against Southend United.[4] He was released at the end of the season following the expiration of his contract.[5] In October 2021, he spoke to BBC News about how he had been kept out of the game for more than a year because of suffering from long covid.[6]

In August 2022, Macnab returned to football, joining Southern League Division One Central side Welwyn Garden City.[7]

In September 2023, Macnab joined Hendon.[8] Following the conclusion of the 2023–24 season, he returned to Hanworth Villa.[9]
