Early and personal life[]
Mitchell was born and raised in Hartlepool, and is a Hartlepool United supporter.[3] He attended High Tunstall College of Science, where he captained the rugby team.[3]
Club career[]
Mitchell made his debut for Newcastle United's reserve team in January 2011 while still at school.[3] He spent time on loan at Workington during the second half of the 2012–13 season,[3] and returned to the club for a second loan spell in August 2013.[6]
He was released by Newcastle in June 2014, signing immediately for Derby County.[7][8] He said he was looking forward to working with Derby's goalkeeping coach Eric Steele.[9] He made his professional debut on 9 January 2016 in the FA Cup against his hometown club Hartlepool United.[10]
On 5 March, Mitchell joined League Two club Luton Town on loan until the end of the 2015–16 season.[11] He made his debut on the same day in a 1–0 win away to Leyton Orient.[12]
On 21 March, Mitchell was named in the Football League Team of the Week for his performance against Plymouth Argyle two days earlier when he made a number of saves, mostly notably from Graham Carey and Gregg Wylde, keeping a clean sheet to help Luton earn a 1–0 away win.[13][14] Following an injury to Lee Grant, Derby recalled Mitchell early from his loan on 5 April.[15]
He moved on loan to Oxford United in August 2018 as cover for the injured Simon Eastwood.[16] He kept a clean sheet on his first-team debut (a 2–0 home victory over Coventry City in the EFL Cup[17]) and saved a penalty on his league debut, a 4–1 away defeat at Portsmouth.[18] Mitchell finished the loan with 15 appearances, with 10 of those appearances coming in the league.[19]
In January 2019 he moved on loan to Shrewsbury Town.[20][21] He signed on loan for Macclesfield Town in January 2020.[22]
On 4 August 2020 he signed on loan for Northampton Town for the 2020–21 season.[23]
On 14 June 2021 it was announced that he would leave Derby at the end of the season, following the expiry of his contract.[24]
In August 2021 he signed for Hartlepool United.[25][26] Mitchell made his Hartlepool debut in an EFL Cup defeat to Crewe Alexandra.[27] He left Hartlepool on 19 January 2022.[28]
On 21 January 2022, Mitchell joined League One club Doncaster Rovers on an eighteen-month deal.[29][30]
