On 9 August 2024, he was announced to have joined the club on a two-year deal with the option for a further twelve months having impressed new manager Matt Taylor with his willingness to defend for the team as well as his exciting attacking play. On 13 August 2024, he made his senior debut, coming on a second-half substitute in a 2–0 EFL Cup First Round defeat to Cardiff City.
On 5 November 2024, Anthony joined National League South side Bath City on a one-month loan deal.
