Career[]

Vickers began his career at Arsenal's Academy. As a second-year scholar, he joined Isthmian League side Canvey Island on loan in August 2013 where he played 30 league games.[3] before returning to the Gunners and signing a professional contract.[4] Vickers then joined Concord Rangers, of the Conference South, on a one-month loan in November 2014,[5] which was later extended until the end of the 2014–15 season.[6] In August 2015, Vickers signed for Swansea City on a two-year deal.[7] He joined Barnet on a season-long loan in July 2016,[8] and made his English Football League debut when he started against Cambridge United on 6 August 2016.[9]

He was released by Swansea at the end of the 2016–17 season.[10] Following his release, Vickers joined League Two club Lincoln City on a two-year deal.[11] On 28 May 2020, it was announced Vickers will leave the club at the end of his current contract.[12]

On 6 November 2020, Vickers signed for Rotherham United on a deal until the end of the season. [13]
