Morgan Feeney (born 8 February 1999) is an English professional footballer who plays as a defender for National League club Carlisle United.
Feeney was born in Bootle, Cumbria on 8 February 1999, and grew up in nearby Workington. He attended St Joseph's Catholic High School, where he played both rugby league and football from a young age. Feeney also played rugby league for Workington Town in their youth set-up. [2]
In 2014, Feeney was spotted by a scout for Everton whilst playing football at a secondary school tournament. He gave up rugby to move to Merseyside with his family and focus on a career in football. [3]
After moving to Liverpool, Feeney made his senior debut at the age of 18 in a UEFA Europa League match against Atalanta in November 2017. [4] On 31 January 2020, Feeney joined League One side Tranmere Rovers on loan until the end of the season. [5] He made just one appearance for Tranmere, having picked up a hamstring injury on his debut. [6]
After leaving Everton, Feeney signed for League One club Sunderland on a short-term deal on 21 August 2020. [7] On 8 September 2020, he scored on his debut for Sunderland in an EFL Trophy tie against Aston Villa U21s. [8] His contract, due to expire in January 2021, will not be renewed. Sunderland manager Lee Johnson explained this with financial uncertainty arising from the coronavirus pandemic. [9]
On 20 January 2021, Feeney returned home to his native Cumbria, joining League Two side Carlisle United on a short-term contract until the end of the 2020–21 season. [10]
The following season, Feeney captained Carlisle to 5th-place finish, securing a play-off spot. [11] In the play-off semi-final, Carlisle defeated Bradford City to win the tie 3–2 on aggregate. [12] In the play-off final, the Cumbrians defeated Stockport County on penalties after a 1–1 draw to earn promotion back to League One after nine years in League Two. [13]
On 28 June 2023, Feeney signed for League One side Shrewsbury Town on a 2-year contract until the end of the 2024–2025 season. [14]
On 7 May 2025, Shrewsbury announced the player would be leaving the club in June when his contract expired. [15]
On 17 June 2025, Feeney once more returned to his home county of Cumbria, re-signing with National League side Carlisle United on a two-year deal, following their relegation from League Two. [16]
