Martell De-Angelo Taylor-Crossdale (born 26 December 1999) is an English professional footballer who plays for Isthmian League Premier Division side Lewes on-loan from Tonbridge Angels.

Career

Taylor-Crossdale began his youth career with Chelsea but left the club following the expiration of his contract in the summer of 2019, signing a two-year deal with Fulham instead.[3] He had turned down a move to Bundesliga side Hoffenheim to join Fulham, despite travelling to Germany to complete a medical with the side.[4]

On 4 September 2020, Taylor-Crossdale joined League Two side Colchester United on a season-long loan deal.[5] He made his debut for Colchester as a second-half substitute during their 2–0 EFL Trophy defeat to Portsmouth on 8 September.[6] But on 18 October 2020, Taylor-Crossdale returned to his parent club Fulham after he left Colchester United via mutual consent.

In February 2021, Taylor-Crossdale joined EFL Championship side Queens Park Rangers on a trial period. He scored the only goal in a 1-0 U23 match against Ipswich Town on 23 February 2021.[7]

After trials at Queens Park Rangers and Doncaster Rovers, Taylor-Crossdale joined National League side Weymouth in October 2021.[8]

After a short spell at Gloucester City, he joined Hendon on 26 November 2022.[9] Less than a month later, on 11 December, he moved to Metropolitan Police.[10]

Taylor-Crossdale spent the 2023-24 season playing for Haverfordwest County in the Cymru Premier. He signed for Welling United in June 2024. Following a season with Welling United, he joined Tonbridge Angels.[11] He then joined Lewes on a three-month loan in November 2025.[12]
