Career[edit]

Hastings United[edit]

Fielding progressed through Eastbourne Borough's youth academy before signing with Isthmian League club Hastings United in 2017.[3][4] He joined Little Common of the Southern Combination League Division One on loan to gain first-team experience during the latter stages of 2017.[5] He returned to his parent club and made his first-team debut for Hastings at the age of 18, coming on as a 90th-minute substitute in the club's 1–0 victory over Walton Casuals on 17 March 2018.[6] Fielding scored his first goal for the club in a 3–1 win away at Chipstead on 7 April 2018.[6] He went on to make eight appearances during the remainder of the 2017–18 season.[6] The 2018–19 season would prove to be Fielding's breakthrough season in terms of regular first-team appearances; playing 35 times in all competitions, scoring two goals.[7] He was named Hasting United's Young Player of the Year at the club's end-of-season awards ceremony.[8] Fielding went on a one-week trial with Premier League club Leicester City, although no move materialised.[9][10]

Fielding received contract offers from Forest Green Rovers and Stevenage of League Two in May 2019.[10] He opted to sign for Stevenage on 22 May 2019.[8] Fielding stated Stevenage's high level training facilities were a decisive factor in choosing to sign for the club.[10] He made his debut in the club's first game of the 2019–20 season, playing the first-half in a 2–0 away defeat to Salford City on 3 August 2019.[11][12] Having made six appearances during the first three months of the season,[11] Fielding joined National League South club St Albans City on a three-month loan agreement on 15 November 2019.[13] The loan was extended for the remainder of the season on 17 January 2020.[13] Fielding made 15 appearances in all competitions during the loan spell.[2] He joined Braintree Town of the National League South on loan in September 2020.[2][14]
