Career
Plymouth Argyle
Whilst he was an academy player, Law featured on the bench for Argyle in a 5–2 EFL League One defeat to Gillingham on 5 May 2018, but did not come on.[3]
Law made his professional debut on 13 November 2018 in an EFL Trophy match between Argyle and EFL League Two side Newport County, where he started at left-back. Newport won the game 2–0.[4] He moved on loan to Gloucester City in early 2019.[5]
Loan Spells
On 19 July 2019 Law joined Truro City of the Southern League Premier South on a 28-day loan.[6] The loan deal was then extended until 18 January 2020.[7] On 19 January 2020 it was confirmed, that the deal had been extended once again, this time for the rest of the season.[8] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the league season was cut short and declared null and void with Truro sitting top of the league at the time.[9]
On 15 March 2021, Law joined National League side Torquay United on a one-month loan deal.[10] He returned to Plymouth on 15 April 2021[11] helping the club to six victories in the eight matches he played, his last appearance coming in a vital top of the table 1–0 victory over Sutton United.[12]
Return to Plymouth
Law scored a first senior goal for the club in a 3–0 victory over Sheffield Wednesday, sealing the victory in the seventh minute of added time having only been brought on as a substitute two minutes prior.[13] Law signed a new one-year contract extension with Plymouth on 6 May 2022.[14]
