Career

[edit]

Kellermann spent his early career with Kidderminster Lions and Stourport Swifts before signing for Wolverhampton Wanderers at the age of 14.[3] Following his release from Wolves he signed for Aldershot Town.[3][4]

James signed a two-year contract with Scottish club St Mirren in May 2018.[5] He made his debut for St Mirren on 13 July 2018 in the Scottish League Cup.[6] He moved on loan to AFC Fylde in August 2018.[7] He left St Mirren by mutual consent on 29 October 2019.[8][9]

In March 2020 he signed for Kidderminster Harriers.[10] He was released at the end of the 2020–21 season.[11]

In August 2021 he signed for National League side Chesterfield.[12] On 17 August 2021, James moved on loan to Southern League Premier Division Central side Tamworth.[13] Kellermann made his debut for Tamworth in a Southern League Premier Division Central fixture on 17 August 2021 at home to Coalville Town; he played up until the 93rd minute, when he was substituted for defender Tom Ward, the match finished 1-1.[14] He scored his first goal for the club in the next Southern League Premier Division Central fixture at home to Lowestoft Town on 21 August 2021. Kellermann scored the first goal of a 6-1 victory.[15] Chesterfield exercised their option to recall Kellermann from his loan on 28 September 2021. He made six appearances and scored two goals during his spell with Tamworth.[16]

Kellerman was offered a new contract at the end of the 2021–22 season, however was unable to agree terms with the club.[17] He then signed for Woking in July 2022.[18] Kellermann went onto make his debut for the club during an opening day away defeat to York City, playing 55 minutes in the 2–0 loss.[19] On 3 December 2023, he scored his first goal for the club during a 3–1 home victory over Maidstone United, completing the scoring in the 82nd minute with Woking's third.[20] He went onto score three more goals that campaign, including strikes against former sides, Aldershot Town and Chesterfield.[2] During the course of the 2022–23 campaign, Kellermann signed a new one-year deal, keeping him at the club until June 2024.[21] During his second season at Woking, Kellermann struggled with injuries and ultimately only featured 20 times in all competitions. On 24 April 2024, he announced that he would be leaving the club at the end of his contract.[22]

On 28 May 2024, Kellerman agreed to join fellow National League side Ebbsfleet United upon the expiration of his contract with Woking.[23] In December 2024, he returned to Kidderminster Harriers on an initial one-month loan deal.[24]
