Reeco Lee Hackett-Fairchild (born 9 January 1998) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for EFL League One club Charlton Athletic.

Club career

Hackett-Fairchild was born in the London Borough of Redbridge, and started his career in the youth sides of Fulham and Brighton & Hove Albion.[2] He then joined the Academy side at local side Dagenham & Redbridge in the summer of 2014 to start a two-year scholarship.[2] In March 2016, he joined Isthmian League Premier Division side Dulwich Hamlet on a youth loan and went on to make one appearance in a draw against Wingate & Finchley.[2] At the end of the season he failed to earn a professional contract at Dagenham and was subsequently released. He later joined Norwich City and then Charlton Athletic on a six-week trial.[3] His trial at Charlton proved to be successful and he was rewarded with an initial three-month contract which was later extended until the end of the season.[3] He was part of the under-23 side that won the regional league title and penned a one-year contract extension due to his contribution during the campaign.[3] He made his professional debut in August 2017, replacing Tony Watt as a substitute in the 2–1 victory over Exeter City in the EFL Cup.[4]

On 7 September 2018, Hackett-Fairchild joined National League side Boreham Wood on an initial month's loan.[5]

Personal life

In June 2018, whilst on holiday in Ibiza, Hackett-Fairchild and teammate Karlan Grant were arrested on suspicion of a sexual assault on a 19-year-old woman.[6]
