Club career[]

Born in Liverpool, Brewitt played youth football for Liverpool (where he spent 10 years, including serving as captain in the FA Youth Cup) and Middlesbrough.[3][4] In October 2020 Brewitt admitted that when he was a Liverpool youth player he had deliberately injured his teammate Daniel Cleary in training to try and improve his own chances of being picked for the first team.[5][6]

In March 2021 he signed for American team Tacoma Defiance.[11][12]

Brewitt signed with USL Championship side Hartford Athletic on 2 February 2022.[13]
