Career

Meade was born in Luton, England, and started his career with Sunday league side Bramingham FC.[4] He joined Arsenal in August 2004 at the age of eleven. He started off initially as a left winger before moving into a more defensive role as a left back.[5] During the 2011–12 season he made nineteen appearances for the reserve side, with only Oğuzhan Özyakup and Martin Angha appearing more.[6] In the same season he also appeared on the bench as an unused substitute for Arsenal's first team against Bolton Wanderers in a League Cup fixture.[7]

Meade featured in pre-season friendly matches in advance of the 2012–13 season, including a game against Premier League opposition Southampton.[8] After eight years with the club, he made his first team debut in a dramatic 7–5 extra time victory against Reading in the League Cup fourth round.[9] Meade entered the match as a substitute, replacing the injured Ignasi Miquel in the 105th minute.[9] In the process, he became the 811th player to have played for Arsenal.[10] On 4 December 2012, Meade made his first start for Arsenal in a Champions League game against Olympiacos, where he was deployed at left back.[11] The match ended in a 2–1 defeat for Arsenal with Meade being replaced late on by Martin Angha.[12] His contract with Arsenal expired at the end of 2012–13 season and, on 20 May 2013, it was announced that Meade would not be offered a new contract and would be released to find another club.[13] On 16 July 2013, he agreed a deal to join Premier League side Swansea City on a one-year contract.[5] He played regularly for Swansea's Under-21 side in the Professional Development League during the first half of the 2013–14 season.[14]

On 28 January 2014, Meade joined his hometown club Luton Town on loan for the remainder of the 2013–14 season.[14] He did not feature for Luton's first-team during his time at the club, appearing only in development squad games, with manager John Still stating that he "would have liked to have seen [Meade] do a bit better".[15]

Meade was released by Swansea in May 2014.[16]

He then moved to St Albans City, being signed from Spartan South Midlands Football League side Hadley in November 2015.[17]

On 9 February 2016, Meade joined Swedish Superettan side AFC United.[18]

Personal life

Meade, who is a former Barnfield West Academy pupil, grew up on a council estate in Lewsey Farm with his brothers Kyle and Kahmal in a single parent family.[19][20]
