Michael Bakare

Early career

Bakare started his senior career in the 2006–07 season, playing for Hertford Town and Waltham Forest. The following season, Bakare signed for Welwyn Garden City. In 2008, Bakare signed for Leyton, before spells with Welling United, and Thurrock. In 2010, Bakare joined Bishop's Stortford. It was here where he first made a real impact, converting from a full back and midfielder to a forward player. Following an impressive 9 goals in 14 games early in the 2011/12 season, Bakare joined Conference South club Chelmsford City, in a free transfer on 19 October 2011. He continued to impress at his new club, scoring 5 goals in 10 games, which earned Bakare a move to Football League side, Macclesfield Town on 17 January 2012.

Macclesfield Town

Bakare signed on a free transfer, and made his first appearance as a substitute against Swindon Town on 21 January 2012. He was however limited to substitute appearances at Macclesfield, not starting a single game, and was released by the club, following their relegation at the end of the 2011/2012 season, making only 9 appearances. His last game was against Southend United on 5 May 2012.

Southport

Conference National club Southport took Bakare on trial in July 2012. After a single appearance in a friendly against Skelmersdale United it was announced manager Liam Watson had signed the player to a contract for the 2012–13 season at the club's AGM on 27 July 2012.
