Mickey Demetriou

Early career

Demetriou began his career as a striker, playing for non-league sides Worthing and Bognor Regis Town. He was then invited to join the Glenn Hoddle Academy in Spain, where he was converted into a defender, and had a spell playing for Jerez Industrial.

Eastbourne Borough

On his return to England, Demetriou joined Eastbourne Borough on non-contract terms on 28 January 2011. He made his Conference debut the following day as an 82nd-minute substitute for Steven Masterton in a 1–1 home draw with Grimsby Town, and made nine more appearances over the season.

Kidderminster Harriers

After departing Eastbourne, Demetriou signed a one-year contract with fellow Conference team Kidderminster Harriers on 20 June 2011. He made his debut on 24 September, filling in for Jamille Matt for the final five minutes of a 2–1 win over Mansfield Town at Field Mill. On 7 February 2012, Demetriou extended his contract with Kidderminster until the end of the 2013–14 season. He got his first goal on 4 September 2012, a last-minute equaliser away to Braintree Town via a 20-yard strike called a "stunner" by the Essex Chronicle. The following 12 January, he scored his only other goal for the Harriers, a free kick to open a 2–0 win in the season's trip to Mansfield.

Shrewsbury Town

Demetriou made the step up to the Football League, joining League Two side Shrewsbury Town on a free transfer following the expiry of his Kidderminster deal, on a two-year contract…
