Career

Malcolm joined Wycombe Wanderers as a schoolboy, but in March 2000, aged 14, was signed by Tottenham Hotspur for an initial fee of £1 Million. He progressed to be a trainee at Tottenham, but on failing to make the grade joined Stockport County in July 2005. His league debut came on 6 August 2005 when he came on as a late substitute for Keith Briggs in a 2–2 draw at home to Mansfield Town. Malcolm was due to have a trial with Werder Bremen with a view to a permanent move, but Bremen decided to pull the plug.[2] He was released by Stockport in May 2007.[3] Subsequently he joined Kettering on a free transfer.

Malcolm signed for Conference North side Kettering Town in August 2007.[4] He made his debut in the 2007–08 season opener at Stalybridge Celtic.[5] But in September 2007 he moved to Conference National side Rushden & Diamonds.[6] After a promising home debut, Malcolm opened his account at Rushden by scoring what would prove to be the winner away at Weymouth after coming on as a second half substitute. He joined Weymouth on non-contract terms on 4 January 2008.

He re-signed for Crawley Town on 1 July 2010 after he was earlier unable to agree a new contract.[7] He went out on loan to Hayes & Yeading in August 2010.[8]

On 14 December 2010 Crawley Town announced that his contract had been cancelled.[9] Later that month he signed for Farnborough.[10] In July 2011 Malcolm signed for Lewes in the Ryman Premier league. On 3 February, he signed for Conference South side Bromley. He scored Bromley's equaliser in their 1–1 away draw with Thurrock on his debut on 14 February 2012. Bromley announced on 4 January 2013 that Malcolm was leaving the club with immediate effect, by mutual agreement.[11] On 25 January Malcolm scored a wonderful deft header to score his first goal for Wealdstone FC
