Club career

Early career

After leaving Cypriot club Olympiakos Nicosia due to contract issues, Beasant joined the Glenn Hoddle Academy, where his father - former England goalkeeper Dave Beasant - was a coach. Following an unsuccessful trial with Birmingham City, he joined non-league Maidenhead United in November 2011.

Woking

After a successful half-season with the club, he moved onto Woking, but after just three appearances he left for Billericay Town, returning to the Kingfield Stadium ahead of the 2013/14 season.

Stevenage

At the end of the season, he moved up to the Football League with Stevenage. Sharing goalkeeping duties with veteran Chris Day during pre-season, he was chosen ahead of Day in their opening League Two fixture at home to Hartlepool United, keeping a clean sheet in a 1-0 victory.

Cambridge United

In July 2015 Beasant signed a one-year deal with Cambridge United.[3] Beasant was released by Cambridge United at the end of the 2015/16 season.[4]
