Devante McKain (born 26 June 1994) is an English footballer who plays for Bedford Town as a defender.
McKain began his youth career at Fulham before eventually moving to Maidenhead United. In November 2012, McKain signed with Gillingham for an undisclosed fee.[2] At the time, then Gillingham boss Martin Allen said, "Devante was recommended to me by Maidenhead United manager Johnson Hippolyte, the same man that recommended DJ Campbell to me."[3] Allen also said of McKain "He is big. He is strong. He is quick. He heads it. He needs to improve technically but he has got priceless attributes for a young centre-back."[4] Also at the time, Maidenhead United manager Johnson Hippolyte said of McKain, "from day one we were all adamant he would play professional football. It was a no brainer, that's how much ability he has."[5]
McKain made his Football League One debut for Gillingham on 27 April 2013 at Burton Albion.[6] On 7 September 2013, he made his second Gillingham appearance against Crawley Town.[7]
In October 2013, Martin Allen said, "Devante was close to playing in our team a couple of weeks ago. He has been fantastic in training."[8]
In May 2014, McKain signed a new one-year deal to stay at Gillingham.[9]
In March 2015, Devante was released by Gillingham along with several others [10]
