Club career
West Bromwich Albion
After regularly appearing for the Baggies' reserve side, he went out on loan to Barrow in January 2010. He made two substitute appearances in the Conference National before returning to The Hawthorns. He then joined Icelandic top flight side Keflavík Football Club on a month-long loan at the start of the 2010 Úrvalsdeild season, along with fellow West Bromwich Albion player Lateef Elford-Alliyu.[2]
He joined League One side Tranmere Rovers on loan at the beginning of the 2010–11 season[3] and made his Football League debut on 14 August 2010 in a goalless draw with Huddersfield Town at the Galpharm Stadium.[4] He started his first Football League game away to Dagenham & Redbridge on 28 August.[5]
"Kayleden is a good young prospect who I've seen play a lot for West Brom's reserve side. He's strong, athletic and has a good scoring record."
On 9 November he joined Dagenham & Redbridge on a one-month loan,[7] making his debut for the club on 20 November in a league match against Oldham Athletic.[8] The deal was later extended by a further month and ended on 9 January.[9]
On 21 January 2011 he joined Jim Gannon's Port Vale on a one-month loan, along with Romaine Sawyers.[10] The pair returned to The Hawthorns after the loan spell ended, with Brown having made four substitute appearances at Vale Park.[11] At the end of the 2012–13 season he was released by West Bromwich Albion due to a serious knee injury.
Non-League
Brown started the 2013–14 season with Northern Premier League side Market Drayton Town. He soon moved on to Southern League outfit Stourbridge, making his debut in mid-October after his injury kept him sidelined for a few weeks.[12] The "Glassboys" finished in fifth place in 2013–14, securing a play-off spot before losing to Chesham United at the semi-final stage. They were then switched to the Northern Premier League, finishing in 16th place in 2014–15 and sixth place in 2015–16.
International career
Brown has received call-ups for the Wales youth squads at both U17 and U19 levels. He received his first international call-up for an under-17 friendly tournament in July 2008.[13]
For the under-19 side, he scored a hat-trick past Andorra in a 6–0 win on 15 November 2008.[14] He also scored in games against both FYR Macedonia and Liechtenstein.[15][16]
