Management career

Playing career

Liverpool

Born in St Asaph and brought up in nearby Dyserth, Maxwell began his career as a trainee with Liverpool. He became a regular in the reserve team, keeping Steven Gerrard out of the squad on occasion, and signed a professional contract with the club by the time he was 19. He made his debut for the Liverpool first team in a League Cup match against Hull City on 21 September 1999, scoring Liverpool's second goal at the Kop End in a 4–2 win. However, that proved to be Maxwell's only appearance for the Reds, and he was loaned out to Stockport County for the final year of his contract, scoring two goals in 23 appearances. When his contract expired at the end of the 2000–01 season, Maxwell was given a free transfer and signed for Cardiff City.

Cardiff City

Maxwell made a promising start to his Cardiff career, making 21 appearances in his first season at Ninian Park. His second season with the Bluebirds went in a similar fashion, making a further 22 appearances in the first six months of the 2002–03 season. However, he was loaned to Barry Town for the remainder of the season. Maxwell returned to Cardiff for the start of the 2003–04 season, but only made two more appearances before being granted a free transfer to Swansea City in March 2004. His only goal for Cardiff came in a league match away to Northampton Town. Before the end of the 2003–04 season, Maxwell managed to play three games for the Swans, but was again given a free transfer in June 2004.
