After leaving the FAB Academy, Patrick joined Beaconsfield SYCOB after having unsuccessful trials with Brentford, Barnet and Rangers.

Barnsley
Following an impressive trial for Barnsley U23s, during which he scored against Ipswich Town U23s, he signed a one-year contract with the club on 21 September 2016. He was initially assigned to the development squad.[10][11] He never made a first-team appearance for Barnsley.[12]
Bradford City
He signed a one-year contract with Bradford City in May 2017.[13] Following some "impressive" performances in pre-season friendlies, Patrick was praised by Bradford manager Stuart McCall.[14] He started the first game of the 2017–18 season, scoring the winning goal.[15][16] Following an "impressive start" to the season, Patrick signed a new three-year contract with the club in August 2017.[17] He was dropped from the first-team halfway through the 2017–18 season, and also suffered a knee injury.[18]
On 28 August 2018, Patrick joined League Two side Yeovil Town on loan until January 2019.[19] His loan ended on 2 January 2019.[20]
On 21 November 2019 he moved on loan to Wrexham, initially for one month.[21][22] On 19 December the loan was extended for a second month.[23] He returned to Bradford City at the end of his loan on 20 January 2020.[24]

Patrick can play across the forward line as a striker or a winger. Upon his signing for Barnsley, Bobby Hassell said "he's quick and strong so he will be a dangerous asset in our attacking play. He is also very hard working off the ball, which is a very important and a valuable skill to have."[11] He has been described by Bradford City Head of Recruitment Greg Abbott as being "lightning quick" and that he "runs in behind [the defence] and is good with both feet".[4]
