Early and personal life

Born in Tadcaster, North Yorkshire,[2] Maxted grew up in Boston Spa.[3] His uncle, Paul Maxted, also played as a goalkeeper for Guiseley.[3]

Career

After playing with Collingham and Tadcaster Albion, Maxted joined Doncaster Rovers at the age of 15.[3] While with Doncaster he spent loan spells at Goole and Gainsborough Trinity.[3] After leaving Doncaster he played for Hartlepool United, before moving to Forest Green Rovers in July 2015.[4] He signed on loan for Guiseley in September 2016, making the move permanent in November 2016.[5] In November 2017 his performances were credited with helping Guiseley reach the second round of the FA Cup for the first time in their history.[6] He signed for Accrington Stanley in January 2018.[7] He made his Accrington Stanley debut on 2 April 2018, keeping a clean sheet in a 1–0 home win against Notts County.[8] He served as a deputy to Connor Ripley in the 2018–19 season.[9]

After failing to agree a new contract with Accrington, it was confirmed on 28 June 2019 that he would join Exeter City on 1 July 2019.[10] He was nominated for January 2020 EFL League Two player of the month after keeping four consecutive clean sheets in the league.[11] On 29 June 2020 he played for Exeter City in the behind closed doors League Two play-off final because of the COVID-19 pandemic at Wembley Stadium, missing out on promotion to League One with a 4–0 defeat to Northampton Town.[12]

On 12 May 2021 it was announced that he would leave Exeter at the end of the season, following the expiry of his contract.[13] On 24 June 2021 it was announced that he would sign for Northampton Town.[14]
