Club career
[edit | edit source]Marschall joined the Cambridge City academy as a child. Until he was 13, Marschall had never played in goal, playing as a defender.[5]
Aston Villa
[edit | edit source]In January 2018, Marschall signed for EFL Championship club Aston Villa. Marschall was a regular starting goalkeeper for Villa's youth teams.[6] In 2021, Marschall was part of the Villa team that won the FA Youth Cup. Later that season, he was awarded Aston Villa's Premier League Scholar of the Year.[7] In July 2021, Marschall was given his first professional contract by Aston Villa.[8] He was named in a first-team matchday squad for the first time on 14 December 2021, when he was an unused substitute in a Premier League match at Norwich City.[9]
On 31 January 2022, Marschall joined National League North club Gateshead on a six-month loan.[10] Marschall made 19 appearances for the club as they were crowned champions at the end of the 2021–22 season.[11] Upon returning from the loan, Marschall signed a contract extension with Villa.[12] Manager Steven Gerrard took him as one of four goalkeepers to the club's pre-season tour of Australia in July 2022.[13] In January 2023, Marschall returned to Gateshead for another six-month loan.[14] He was an unused substitute in the club's FA Trophy run, which ended in a 1–0 defeat to FC Halifax Town in the final at Wembley Stadium.[15] He played 20 National League games in the second half of the 2022–23 campaign.[16]
On 14 December 2023, Marschall made his Aston Villa first-team debut in a UEFA Europa Conference League match away at Zrinjski Mostar.[17] The victory meant that Unai Emery's Villans topped their group to secure qualification to the knockout stage.[18]
On 19 January 2024, Marshall joined League Two club Milton Keynes Dons on loan until the end of the 2023–24 season.[19]
