Following his release from Ipswich, Marshall signed a one-year deal with National League South club Maidstone United on 11 October 2019.[5] The move meant that he would be playing under the management of Hakan Hayrettin, who had previously managed Marshall during his loan spell at Braintree.[5] Marshall made his Maidstone debut a day after signing, playing the whole match in a 1–1 draw away at Bath City.[9] He scored his first goal for the club in a 4–1 home victory over Dulwich Hamlet on 28 December 2019.[10] Marshall went on to make 25 appearances in all competitions throughout the 2019–20 season, scoring once.[2]
