Archie is a versatile player who can play up front, just behind the striker, wide right, wide left or in central midfield.
A graduate of the Exeter City Academy, Archie, from Bridgwater, signed his first professional contract at City last April having trained a number of times with the first team last season.
He made his first-team debut for City in the Checkatrade Trophy against Chelsea under-21s in the 2017/18 season and made his first appearance for the club in the 2018/19 campaign in a Carabao Cup victory over Ipswich Town. He scored his first goal for the club with a 25-yard shot into the top corner in a 2-0 win over Swindon Town on New Year's Day.
The 2018/19 season was a real breakthrough period for the youngster as he turned out 33 times for the club and he'll no doubt be targeting further progression in the 2019/20 campaign. Another proud moment came for Archie this season when he captained the club, at the age of 20, for their first round FA Cup match at Cambridge United.
