Club career

Born in Gleadless,[5] Slater is a graduate of the Sheffield United academy.[6] He further progressed to captain the youth side.[7]

In November 2016, Slater made his first team debut against Grimsby Town; scoring a goal in the 4–2 victory and becoming the youngest footballer to achieve this feat for the club.[8] On 28 December 2016, Slater was promoted to the senior team; penning a deal which would keep him at the club till 2020.[9] On 16 December 2017, Slater made his league debut, replacing Samir Carruthers in a 1–0 defeat against Preston North End. In January 2018, he made an appearance against Ipswich Town in the FA Cup; where his tackle against Bersant Celina was later said by Wilder to be Slater's "personal highlight" of the match.[7]

On 20 July 2018, Slater was loaned out to League Two club Carlisle United on a one-year deal.[10] He scored his first two goals for the club in a 4-0 win over Swindon Town in November 2018.

On 27 July 2019, Slater signed a season-long loan with Scunthorpe United, the same day scoring on his debut in a pre-season friendly against Lincoln City.[11][12]
