Loan to Newport County

On 15 January 2016, Beeney joined League Two side Newport County on a one-month loan deal.[5] The next day, he made his professional debut in a 1–0 victory over York City at Bootham Crescent, therefore earning a clean sheet.[6] The loan period was extended on 18 February, to 16 April.[7] However, on 25 February 2016 Beeney was released from his loan by Newport manager Warren Feeney.

On 30 August 2016, Beeney was given his first start in an EFL Trophy tie against Colchester United, after being used as a back-up to Yusuf Mersin. The game resulted in a 1–0 victory for the Reds, with James Collins scoring the only goal.[10] On 10 September 2016, Beeney made his league debut in a 2–1 away defeat against Stevenage.[11]

Loan to Sligo Rovers

On 22 February 2018, Beeney was announced as having signed on loan for Sligo Rovers of the League of Ireland until 30 June 2018.[12] A day later, he made his debut during their 2–1 home victory over Derry City, playing the full 90 minutes as Sligo Rovers claimed their first three points of the season.[13]
