Club career[]

Born in Manchester, Redmond signed for Manchester United in July 2013 from Fletcher Moss Rangers.[4][2] In July 2017 he joined League One side Scunthorpe on a loan deal until January 2018.[5] Redmond made his debut for Scunthorpe against Notts County in the EFL Cup on 8 August 2017, coming on for Sam Mantom in the 89th minute while the score was 3–3. He scored in the following penalty shootout which saw Scunthorpe win 6–5.[6] He was recalled by Manchester United in January 2018.[7]

He was one of 8 players released by Manchester United at the end of the 2017–18 season.[8] He later said that he found out via Twitter.[9]

In June 2018 he went on trial with Shrewsbury Town.[10]

Salford City[]

National League side Salford City signed Redmond on 31 January 2019.[11] His first goal for the club came on 18 March, scoring the only goal in a 1–0 win against Aldershot Town, helping close the gap to league leaders Leyton Orient to four points.[12] Overall, he started 11 of Salford's final 12 league fixtures as they reached the National League play-offs.[13]

On 11 May 2019, Salford defeated Fylde 3–0 in the play-off Final, with Redmond contributing heavily to the opening goal from Emmanuel Dieseruvwe;[14] this marked the first time Salford had ever reached the Football League.[15] It was announced at the end of May that he had been offered a new deal by the club, but had decided to pursue his career elsewhere, and would leave the club at the end of June when his contract expired.[16]

Wrexham[]

On 8 June 2019, Redmond signed for Wrexham on a two-year deal.[17][18] On 3 August, he made his début for Wrexham on the opening day of the National League season, starting in a 2–1 home win against Barrow.[19] He scored his first for the club in a 1–1 draw on 18 August, a "magnificent" strike earning Wrexham a point away to Notts County.[20]
