On 2 June 2016, Brown announced he had signed for Hannover 96 via his Instagram social media account.[7] His contract was terminated by mutual consent after 18 months in Germany.[8]

Brown returned to London and signed for Barnet, but following a long wait for international clearance and the departure of Graham Westley as manager, Brown was released by new manager Martin Allen in March 2018.[9]

On 18 October 2018, Brown joined Czech National Football League side Znojmo.[10]

On 30 January 2019, Brown signed for Canadian Premier League side Cavalry FC.[11] In the 2019 Canadian Championship quartfinals, Brown would score the opening goal as Cavalry would upset Major League Soccer side Vancouver Whitecaps, knocking them out of the tournament.[12] In December 2019, Cavalry announced Brown would return to the club for the 2020 season.[13]

On 22 October 2020, Brown signed a one-year contract with Regionalliga side VfR Aalen.[14][15] He left the club in March 2021 after asking to terminate his contract.[16]

In 2022, he returned to Canada, signing with Electric City FC in League1 Ontario.[17] He led the team in scoring in 2022 with 11 goals.[18]

On 22 August 2022, he returned to the Canadian Premier League, signing with Pacific FC through the 2023 season, with an option for 2024.[19][20] After the 2022 season, he agreed to mutually terminate the remainder of his contract.[21]

In the summer of 2024, he signed with Northwood in the English eighth tier Southern League Division One Central.[22]

After five appearances,[23] he joined Egham Town in September 2024.[24]
