Career

Stoke City

Eve started playing football for his local side Dandy Town Hornets before moving to England to play for Derby County's youth team. He spent a short time in the East Midlands before being spotted by scouts at Premier League club Stoke City who signed him to on a two-year development contract in June 2011 beating off competition from Manchester City.[2] Eve made his international debut at the age of 16 making him Stoke City's youngest player to be capped taking the record from Hungarian Ádám Vass. In May 2012 Eve signed a two-year professional contract with Stoke.[3]

Eve joined Fleetwood Town on loan in December 2013 and made three substitute appearances on the bench before returning to Stoke City in January 2014.[4] He joined Nuneaton Town on loan in March 2014 and made his debut on 28 March against Braintree Town.[5][6] Speaking after his loan spell at Nuneaton Eve stated that it was a "humbling experience".[7]

In the 2014–15 season, Eve had short loan spells with non-league sides Newcastle Town and Congleton Town.[8][9]

International career

Eve has progressed through the youth teams of Bermuda and was called up to the senior squad in November 2011.[10] He made his international debut for the "Gombey Warriors" in a 2014 FIFA World Cup qualification match against Barbados where he came on as a second-half substitute in a 2–1 victory.[11]
