Charlie put pen to paper on a two-year deal with the Blues in May 2023 despite significant interest higher up the English footballing pyramid. Caton first arrived at Chester FC on loan from Shrewsbury Town in November 2022. He would go on to spend the remainder of the campaign with the club, impressively contributing seven goals and seven assists in 26 league appearances. Charlie opted to make his stay with the Seals a permanent one in the summer of 2023.
