Adam Buxton

Wigan Athletic

Buxton began his career at Wigan Athletic, and experienced his first taste of first-team football when he was an unused substitute for an FA Cup tie against Hull City on 8 January 2011. Buxton spent the rest of the season playing for the Wigan reserve team, and went on to captain the development squad throughout the 2011–12 and 2012–13 seasons. He broke back into the first-team setup at the beginning of the 2013–14 season, travelling with the senior Wigan side on their pre-season tour of the United States, and featuring in several pre-season friendlies. However, once the newly relegated side's season had started, Buxton found himself unable to make his way into the line-up for the first-team.

Burton Albion (Loan)

On 3 January 2014, League Two side Burton Albion took Buxton on loan from Wigan for one month. He was issued the squad number 4, and made his professional debut on 14 January 2014 in a 4–1 defeat to AFC Bournemouth in the FA Cup. Buxton made no further appearances for Burton, and was recalled by Wigan on 1 February 2014, at the completion of the initial one-month loan.

Accrington Stanley (Loan)

Buxton was sent out on loan again a month later, joining another League Two side Accrington Stanley on 8 March 2014, on a one-month emergency loan deal. He made his debut for the club the same day, starting in a 3–1 league win against Chesterfield. Accrington manager James Beattie said of Buxton's debut performance after the match:…

While predominantly a right-back, Buxton is a versatile defender, capable of also playing at left-back and centre-back.

As of match played 11 February 2017.
