The younger brother of former Crewe midfielder Oliver Finney, Charlie Finney came through Crewe Alexandra's Academy, signing his first professional deal in July 2021.[2]
He made his Crewe debut on 9 August 2022, starting alongside his brother in Crewe's EFL League Cup first round defeat at Grimsby Town.[3] He made his first league appearance as a substitute on 13 September 2022, supplying the cross for Dan Agyei's equaliser in a 1–1 draw at Hartlepool United.[4]
On 4 March 2023, he joined National League North play-off chasers Chorley on a one-month loan deal.[5] Following his return to Crewe, he was included in the starting line-up for the first time, playing 73 minutes of Crewe's 2–0 league win over Walsall on 15 April 2023.[6] At the end of the season, he was offered a new contract by the club,[7] and in June 2023, signed an initial two-year deal, with an option for a further 12 months.[8] He made a dozen appearances, mainly as a substitute, during the first half of the following season, but in December 2023 manager Lee Bell said Finney required surgery on a persistent calf injury.[9]
In September 2024, Finney joined National League North side Buxton on an initial five-week loan deal.[10]
