Max Frederick Smallcombe (born 27 March 1999) is a Welsh professional footballer who plays as a midfielder.
Smallcombe came through the Exeter City Academy to make his first-team debut on 30 August 2016, in a 4–2 defeat at Oxford United in an EFL Trophy group stage match.[3] He turned professional at Exeter in April 2017, having successfully captained the youth team to a league title in the 2016–17 season.[4]
He started the 2017–18 season on loan at Southern League Division One West club Bideford.[5] He scored his first goals in senior football with a brace on 2 September, helping the "Robins" to a 5–1 victory over Bishop's Cleeve in an FA Cup qualification match at The Sports Ground.[6] Manager Sean William Joyce went on to praise his professionalism, stating that he was badly missed by the team after he picked up a hamstring injury in September.[7]
