Ryan Allsop (born 17 June 1992) is an English professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for EFL League One club Birmingham City.
He started his career as a youth player at West Bromwich Albion, before moving to Millwall in 2011. After short spells with Icelandic club Höttur, with whom he made his debut in senior football, and Leyton Orient, with whom he first appeared in the Football League, he joined AFC Bournemouth in 2013. He spent time on loan at Coventry City, Wycombe Wanderers, Portsmouth, Blackpool and Lincoln City, and made 23 league appearances for Bournemouth, including two in the Premier League, before returning to Wycombe Wanderers in 2018 for three seasons.
Allsop began his career in the youth ranks at West Bromwich Albion, progressing to the reserve team before being called up to sit on the bench for a first team match against Wigan Athletic. During his time at West Bromwich, he was called up to the England U17 team, and he also spent time on loan with Stockport County, although he did not play. [3]

[4] He subsequently signed a short-term deal with Icelandic club Höttur, making 10 appearances in league and cup before moving back to England and signing for Leyton Orient on a six-month contract in July 2012. [5]
With Orient's first- and second-choice goalkeepers Jamie Jones and Lee Butcher injured, Allsop made his professional debut in the first game of the 2012–13 season, a Football League Cup tie at Charlton Athletic on 14 August 2012. The match ended in a 1–1 draw and a penalty shoot-out, in which Allsop saved Johnnie Jackson's penalty as Orient went through to the second round 4–3.

On 31 January 2018, following the injury to first team goalkeeper Josh Vickers, Allsop Joined Lincoln City F.C. until the end of the season. [12] 6 days later his save proved crucial as Lincoln won 4–2 on penalties in the semi-finals of the EFL Trophy against Chelsea Under-21s, [13] and he then played in the final at Wembley as Lincoln won the competition. [14]
He was released by Bournemouth at the end of the 2017–18 season. [15]

On 6 August 2021, Allsop signed a one-year contract with Derby County following a trial period with the club. [18]
On 16 June 2022, Allsop agreed a two-year deal to join Cardiff City upon the expiration of his contract with Derby County on 1 July. [19]
On 30 August 2023, Hull City signed Allsop on a two-year deal for an undisclosed fee, reuniting him with head coach Liam Rosenior who worked with him at Derby County. [20]
