Career

Stewart came through Wycombe Wanderers's youth system and was awarded his first professional contract in 2011.

He made his Football League debut against Preston North End on 14 January 2012, playing the full match.[4] Following this he featured among the substitutes before getting his next appearance with a start away to Stevenage. He then followed this with a home debut in the 1–1 draw with Carlisle. His emergence as a first team player coincided with reported interested from fellow League One sides Charlton, Colchester and Stevenage.[5]

Stewart joined Crewe Alexandra on loan in November 2014 even though he was not under any contract at Wycombe Wanderers, but at the end of the 2014–15 season, Crewe Alexandra decided not to renew Stewart's contract and he is was a free agent. .[6] In January 2015, he signed a short-term contract to the end of the season at Crewe, with Wycombe receiving a small fee.[7]

On 26 June 2015, having been released by Crewe at the end of the 2014–15 season, Stewart rejoined Wycombe Wanderers on a two-year deal.[8]

On 13 July 2020, Stewart scored the first goal for Wycombe Wanderers as they won the EFL League One playoff final against Oxford United at Wembley Stadium. [9]
