Career

Liverpool

Born in Rainford, Merseyside, [1] O'Donnell was 16 years old when he was spotted by Liverpool playing in a local amateur league for his village side 'Rainford Rangers'.[ citation needed ] He joined Liverpool in 2002, and moved up through the ranks, and was captain of the under-18 side. He was promoted to train with the first-team at Melwood in 2005. He was included in the Liverpool squad for the 2005 FIFA Club World Championship, and was given the number 5 shirt for the tournament.

Crewe Alexandra

O'Donnell featured in Liverpool's pre-season friendlies against Wrexham and Crewe and excelled on both occasions. He played well enough to impress Crewe to make a move to get him on loan. It was announced on 7 August 2006 that he would join Crewe on a six-month loan deal [2] and would wear the number 37 shirt. [3] [4] His loan deal was extended in December 2006. [5] On 13 June, he signed for Crewe permanently for a fee rising to £300,000. He was released by Crewe in June 2010. [6]

Shrewsbury Town

After his release he went on trial with Rochdale [7] before he joined Shrewsbury Town on a 6-month deal in August 2010. [8] He was released at the end of December when his deal expired. [9]
