Career

Kite joined the Exeter City Academy at the under-9 stage, and went on to make his first-team debut on 29 August 2017, coming on as a ninth-minute substitute for Luke Croll in a 3–1 EFL Trophy group stage defeat to Yeovil Town at St James Park.[3]

On 16 August 2019, Kite was loaned out to Taunton Town for three months.[4] On 30 October Exeter confirmed, that the deal had been extended until January.[5] On 9 January 2020, the deal was extended once again, this time until the end of the season.[6]

He scored his first goal for Exeter in an EFL Trophy tie against Swindon Town on 6 October 2020.[7] Injuries to Nigel Atangana and Archie Collins saw Kite become a regular in the first team at the start of the 2021–22 season, and he went on to score his first League goal for Exeter in a 4–1 victory over Bristol Rovers on 21 August 2021.[8]

Style of play
