Kian Thomas Flanagan (born 29 August 1999) is an English-born Irish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder.
Flanagan began his youth career with Southend United, moving to Crystal Palace in 2013, aged 13, for a fee of £37,500. In 2016, on his 17th birthday, he signed a two-year professional contract with the Eagles. In 2018–19, he won the club's young player of the season award, and saw his contract extended by a further year in 2019. [2] In September 2019, Flanagan expressed his frustration at not having yet had a loan spell away from the club. [3] Later that month, Flanagan went on trial at Doncaster Rovers with a view to a loan move in January. Manager Darren Moore was impressed by Flanagan, but no loan move materialised. [4] He was named on Palace's released list at the end of the 2019–20 season, [5] but remained with the club the following season before being released in the summer of 2021. [6]
In July 2021, Flanagan signed for National League club Barnet. [7] He joined Cheshunt on loan in September 2022. [8] Following defeat in the play-offs, he was released by Barnet at the end of the 2022–23 season. [9]
Flanagan is eligible for England and also the Republic of Ireland, who he has represented at under-17, under-18, and under-19 level.
