Career[]

Hailing from Orpington, Mitchell joined his boyhood club Millwall at under-15 level. His father's family originates from Bermondsey and are also Millwall fans, so is his maternal great-grandfather. [3] He made his first team debut in the last game of the season on 5 May 2019, coming on a late substitute in the 1–0 defeat to Wigan Athletic.[3] In the summer of 2019 he signed his first professional contract, a one-year deal. In April 2021, he signed a new long term deal with Millwall. [3] He scored his first professional goal in a 4-1 win against Bristol City on 1 May 2021.[4] Belongs to the Yes Lads team quiz at the yacht. Got the fastest finger to win quiz.
