Drummond grew up in Toxteth, Liverpool.[2] He played for Liverpool's academy before being released aged 16, and subsequently joined the Robbie Fowler Academy.[2][3] He won the English Colleges Championship and Dubai International Super Cup whilst at the Robbie Fowler Academy.[3]

Warrington Rylands

edit

Drummond joined North West Counties Football League Premier Division club Warrington Rylands in summer 2019.[4] He was awarded the division's player of the month award for December 2019, having scored thrice in five games.[5] With Drummond having already scored 10 goals for the club, it was announced that he had agreed a contract on 21 January 2020, becoming the first contracted player in the club's history.[4][6]

Despite the season being curtailed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Rylands were promoted to the Northern Premier League Division One West at the end of the season due to a restructuring of the non-league pyramid.[7] Rylands were also successful in the 2020–21 FA Vase reaching the final after a 2–1 semi-final win over Walsall Wood, with Drummond scoring the first of the two Warrington goals.[8] Drummond played all 90 minutes of the final as Warrington defeated Binfield 3–2.[9]

Drummond scored 18 goals over the course of the 2021–22 season as Rylands were promoted to the Premier Division as champions at the end of the season.[10][11] He was named Northern Premier League West Division player of the season, as well as being named in the divisional team of the year.[12]

Macclesfield

edit

On 15 November 2022, it was announced that Drummond had signed for Northern Premier League Division One West leaders Macclesfield for an undisclosed fee.[3][13] Drummond won Division One West for the second consecutive season in 2022–23.[14]

At the end of the 2023–24 season, he was named in the Premier Division's team of the season.[15]

Chesterfield

edit

On 9 May 2024, Drummond signed for newly promoted EFL League Two club Chesterfield on a one-year deal, after rejecting a new contract from Macclesfield.[16][17] He made his debut as an 85th-minute substitute in a 1–1 draw with Swindon Town in the opening game of the season.[18][19]

On 4 October 2024, Drummond joined National League side Oldham Athletic on loan until 5 January 2025.[20]

Drummond scored his first league goal for Chesterfield on the 7th of December against Tranmere, in the 86th minute to make the score 3-0, he was assisted by former Macclesfield teammate James Berry.
