Career

Castro played non-league football for Mildenhall Town, Thetford Town, Norwich CBS, Leiston and Bury Town during his early career.[5][6][7] Castro had trial spells at Ipswich Town in 2019 and later in 2020, and also spent time on trial at Sutton United, Arsenal, Chelsea and West Bromwich Albion.[2][5]

In summer 2021, Castro signed for EFL Championship club West Bromwich Albion on a two-year contract following his trial at the club.[5] He made his debut for the club on 25 August 2021, starting in a 6–0 EFL Cup second round defeat to Arsenal.[8][9] Castro went onto make his only league appearance for West Brom on 28 February 2022, as a substitute in a 2–0 Championship defeat to Swansea City.[10]

On 28 June 2023, it was announced that Castro would sign with National League side York City following the expiration of his West Bromwich Albion contract.[15]

On 19 January 2024, he joined National League North side King's Lynn on an initial month's loan. He made his debut, as a substitute, the day after he joined in a 2-2 league draw against Hereford.[16]

Castro's York contract was cancelled in May 2024.[17]
