Playing career
Lovell joined Gillingham, one of his father's old clubs, as a trainee in 1999 and was soon a regular for the club's reserve team, prompting Gillingham to sign him to a professional contract when he was still 17 years old.[5] He made his debut for the Gills' first team in a match against Watford in May 2001.[4]
The following season Lovell found himself unable to gain a foothold in the first team squad and was loaned out to St. Leonards.[6] In March 2002 he had a trial spell with Leyton Orient but was not taken on. Shortly after this his contract at Priestfield Stadium expired and was not renewed.[7]
Lovell next had a trial with Margate but again was not taken on.[7] He later had a spell with Hastings United[8] before joining Sittingbourne.[9]
In 2006 Lovell had a brief spell with Welling United but then rejoined Sittingbourne, where his father was now manager.[10] In June 2007 he joined Dover Athletic, now managed by his former Gillingham manager Andy Hessenthaler,[9][11] but in November 2007 left The Crabble to link up with his father, who had recently been appointed manager of Ashford Town (Kent).[12] Following the club's withdrawal from senior football in 2010, Lovell joined Ramsgate.[13]
Ahead of the 2017–18 season, Lovell joined Faversham Town
