Contents

Carson joined the Leeds United academy in 2002, making his full first-team debut for Leeds against Manchester United in February 2004. In January 2005, he moved to Liverpool for a £750,000 fee and was called up for the England senior team later that year. He made nine appearances for Liverpool, including the UEFA Champions League quarter-final victory over Juventus in April 2005, before going on loan to Sheffield Wednesday, Charlton Athletic and Aston Villa in successive seasons to gain experience. After his return to Liverpool from his loan spell at Aston Villa at the end of the 2007–08 season, he joined West Bromwich Albion for a £3.25 million fee in July 2008. In 2011, he moved to Bursaspor of Turkey. After two years in Turkey, he moved back to England with Wigan Athletic, where he remained until 2015 when he signed for Derby County. Carson joined reigning Premier League champions Manchester City on loan in August 2019 to provide cover for Ederson and Claudio Bravo. He signed permanently for Manchester City in 2021.

Carson made his first appearance for the England under-21 team in February 2004 and later set a record of 29 caps for the under-21 team. Following the 2007 UEFA European Under-21 Championship, Carson made his full debut for the England senior team against Austria in November 2007.

Club career

Leeds United

Carson was born in Whitehaven, Cumbria, [4] and grew up in Cleator Moor, where he attended Ehenside School. [5] Although a promising rugby league player as a youth, [6] he instead chose to concentrate on football, playing in goal for his school team from the age of "about 11 or 12". [7] He quickly rose through the youth teams at local team Cleator Moor Celtic to play for the men's team when he was 15. [6] He joined the Leeds United football academy in July 2002 after impressing former Leeds defender Peter Hampton while playing for non-league Workington in the FA Youth Cup. [8] He spent less than a year in the academy and half a season with the reserves before making his first-team debut in January 2004, coming on as a late substitute after Paul Robinson was sent off against Middlesbrough. [9] [10] Two weeks later, he made his full debut, starting against Manchester United in a 1–1 draw at Old Trafford, [11] and made one further appearance in the 2003–04 season against Chelsea in May 2004. [9] Robinson left Leeds in May 2004 and Leeds signed Scottish international goalkeeper Neil Sullivan two months later to compete with Carson for a first-team place, [12] [13] and to help Carson develop and improve. [14] Carson's contract was due to expire at the end of the 2004–05 season but Leeds were keen to retain him and in December 2004 offered him a new long-term contract. [15] However, he chose to join Liverpool, who paid Leeds a £750,000 fee for him, in January 2005. [16] [17]

Liverpool

Carson joined Liverpool on a four-and-a-half-year contract and was to provide competition for Jerzy Dudek for a first-team place. [16] He made his first team debut for Liverpool in March 2005 in a defeat to Newcastle United, [18] and made three consecutive appearances in April, including the home leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-final victory over Juventus. [19] [20] He was an unused substitute when Liverpool were victorious in the 2005 UEFA Champions League final and 2005 UEFA Super Cup. [21] [22]

Loan to Sheffield Wednesday

Carson made only four appearances in the 2005–06 season, all in cup competitions, [23] and in March 2006, was allowed to move to Sheffield Wednesday on loan.[ citation needed ] Wednesday sought his services to help solve their goalkeeping crisis, while Carson was looking to gain more first team experience and to challenge for a place in the England 2006 FIFA World Cup squad. [20] [24] [25] He kept five clean sheets in nine appearances for Wednesday, whose assistant manager Kevin Summerfield hailed his contribution as a key factor in helping the club escape relegation. [26] He returned to Liverpool at the end of the season and in July 2006, extended his contract with Liverpool until 2011. [27]

Loan to Charlton Athletic

In August 2006, Carson joined Charlton Athletic on loan for the 2006–07 season, [28] after Charlton failed in a bid for Norwich City goalkeeper Robert Green. [29] Carson explained that "Liverpool want me to get some experience and then hopefully I can go back next season and be challenging Pepe [Reina] for the number one spot.[ citation needed ] There were a couple of Championship clubs interested but I need to be playing Premiership football because Robert Green, Ben Foster and Chris Kirkland are going to be playing week in, week out so I need to be performing." [30] He played in 36 of 38 Premier League matches, missing only the two matches against Liverpool due to the terms of his loan deal. [31] [32] Although he was unable to prevent Charlton from being relegated at the end of 2006–07, [33] his outstanding form led him to be named as the Charlton Athletic Player of the Year, the first loan player ever to receive the award. [34] [35]

Loan to Aston Villa

Carson returned to Liverpool at the end of the season and in June 2007, Liverpool manager Rafael Benítez confirmed that he would be part of the first-team squad for the 2007–08 season, saying "He must fight with Pepe Reina now for a starting place." [33] Carson remained second choice to Reina, however, and faced further competition following the signing of Charles Itandje in August 2007; as a result, Carson was loaned out again, this time to Aston Villa at a cost to Villa of £2 million.[ citation needed ] Benitez said of the deal, "We do not want to sell him, we are very happy with Scott. But he needs to play to keep up his England place." [36] [37] Aston Villa manager Martin O'Neill preferred Carson to Thomas Sørensen and Stuart Taylor, and Carson played in all but three of Villa's 38 league matches, missing the two matches against Liverpool as he was ineligible to play, [37] [38] and kept 11 clean sheets during the 2007–08 season. [39] [40] He received the first red card of his career when he fouled Carlos Tevez in Villa's 4–1 Premier League defeat to Manchester United. [41]

West Bromwich Albion

Carson returned to Liverpool at the end of the 2007–08 season but in July 2008 joined West Bromwich Albion on a four-year contract for a £3.25 million fee, possibly rising to £3.75 million, with an option for the club to extend the contract by another year. [17] Carson, who had played for five different clubs since making his debut for Leeds in 2004, explained that he wanted to get settled at one club, saying "I've been like a nomad for three or four years. It'll be good to get some roots and hopefully settle. I can see myself here for four or five years, even longer." [42] He made his debut in a 1–0 defeat to Arsenal in the opening match of the 2008–09 Premier League season.[ citation needed ] Despite relegation to the Championship, Carson kept his first team place and after the departure of captain Jonathan Greening he was given the captaincy.[ citation needed ] West Bromwich Albion won promotion back to the Premier League, finishing second, 12 points clear of third place Nottingham Forest with Carson keeping 15 clean sheets out of 43 matches.[ citation needed ] He had been playing regular football for the Midlands club, but in the 2010–11 season, his form seemed to dip and in January 2011, Carson was briefly dropped to the bench for Welsh goalkeeper Boaz Myhill. [43] After the appointment of Roy Hodgson as West Bromwich Albion head coach, he swiftly found himself back in favour at The Hawthorns.[ citation needed ]

Bursaspor

On 1 July 2011, Carson completed a move to Turkish Süper Lig club Bursaspor [44] for a £2 million fee. [45] Carson enjoyed a good first season with Bursaspor.[ citation needed ] He was an ever-present as they finished eighth, conceding 35 goals in 34 matches, the fifth-lowest in the 2011–12 Süper Lig season.[ citation needed ] He also received a runner-up medal for the 2011–12 Turkish Cup.[ citation needed ]

In his second season in Turkey, he played twenty-nine league matches and conceded thirty-three goals, helping his team concede the sixth-fewest goals in the 2012–13 Süper Lig season.[ citation needed ] Bursaspor finished fourth and qualified for the 2013–14 UEFA Europa League.[ citation needed ]

Wigan Athletic

Carson joined Wigan Athletic for £700,000 on a three-year deal on 4 July 2013. [46]

Derby County

After Wigan's relegation to League One, Carson signed a two-year deal with Championship club Derby County with an option for a third year. The fee was undisclosed. [47] At the end of the 2016–17 season, Carson was announced as Derby's Player of the Year. [48]

Manchester City

Carson signed for reigning Premier League champions Manchester City on 8 August 2019 on loan for the 2019–20 season, as the third-choice goalkeeper behind Ederson and Claudio Bravo. [49] He extended his loan for the 2020–21 season. [50] On 14 May 2021, he made his first Premier League appearance in almost a decade in a 4–3 away win over Newcastle United. During the match, Carson saved a Joe Willock penalty but let in the rebound after the ball fell kindly back to Willock. [51]

On 14 June 2021, it was announced that he would leave Derby at the end of the season, following the expiry of his contract. [52] He joined Manchester City permanently. [53] On 9 March 2022, in the second leg of the round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League, against Portuguese side Sporting CP, Carson came off the bench with twenty minutes to go to play his first European match in seventeen years. Carson went on to preserve a clean sheet in a 0–0 draw, since City had beat Sporting 5–0 in the first leg; the English side moved on to the next stage. [54]

Carson would extend his stay with City for a fourth season on 14 June 2022, by signing a new one-year contract. [55] He was an unused substitute when City were victorious in the 2023 UEFA Champions League final over Inter Milan, [56] which was contested at the same stadium he had won the 2005 UEFA Champions League final for Liverpool against Inter's local rivals AC Milan. [57] He thus equalled the record for the longest gap between a first and last European Cup title (18 years), shared with Milan's Paolo Maldini and Alessandro Costacurta. [58]

On 16 June 2023, it was announced that Carson had signed a one-year extension to his contract, keeping him at the club until the end of the 2023–24 season. [59]

On 23 May 2024, Carson signed a further one-year contract extension keeping him at the club until the end of the 2024–25 season. [60]

International career

Carson was first called up to the England under-21 squad in October 2003, a month after his 18th birthday, for the 2004 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualifier against Turkey. [8] At the time he was yet to make his competitive debut for Leeds United's first team, [8] and had previously played only four matches for England at other levels. [8] He made his under-21 debut in a 3–2 win for England against the Netherlands in February 2004. [61] He was selected in the squad for the 2007 UEFA European Under-21 Championship, and in the third match against Serbia, he earned his 28th under-21 cap, [62] [63] eclipsing the record held by Gareth Barry and Jamie Carragher. [64] His 29th and final cap came against the hosts, the Netherlands, in the semi-final, which finished level at 1–1 after extra-time.[ citation needed ] In the resultant penalty shoot-out, he saved one of the 16 penalties he faced and also scored one himself, but England lost 13–12. [65] Carson has since been overtaken by James Milner as the England Under-21 team's most-capped player. [66]

In May 2005, while still a member of the under-21 team, Carson was called up to the England senior team squad for the team's tour of the United States later that month. [67] A year later, he came on as substitute for Robert Green, who had suffered a serious injury, in the England B international friendly against Belarus in May 2006. [68] The injury to Green, who had been named in the England squad for the 2006 FIFA World Cup, led to Carson, who was on standby, being promoted to the England squad for the tournament, [69] although he did not make any appearances.[ citation needed ] Carson continued to be selected for the England senior team squad, [70] [71] and in May 2007, made his second appearance for the England B team in a 3–1 win over Albania. [72] Following the 2007 UEFA Under-21 Championships, he made his full England debut in a friendly against Austria in November 2007 when he kept a clean sheet. [73] A week later, he made his competitive debut replacing Paul Robinson in a crucial match against Croatia, which England lost 3–2, resulting in their failure to qualify for UEFA Euro 2008. [74] Carson was held particularly culpable for the first goal, when Niko Kranjčar cut inside and his dipping speculative shot from 30 yards dipped and bounced in front of him, with Carson only succeeding in parrying the ball into the net as it squirmed through him. [75] [76] [74] England coach Steve McClaren was dismissed the next day, [77] as commentators criticised McClaren for selecting an inexperienced goalkeeper for the match. [78]

New manager Fabio Capello named Carson in his first England squad for the friendly match against Switzerland in February 2008, [79] but the goalkeeper did not make the final squad for the match against France the following month due to injury. [80] After failing to make Capello's squads for the next five internationals, Carson was recalled to the England squad in October 2008 for the 2010 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Kazakhstan and Belarus. [81] [82] He won his third England cap in November 2008, in a friendly against Germany in Berlin when he came on for the second half.[ citation needed ] In doing so he became the first West Bromwich Albion player to play for England for 24 years. [83] He won his fourth cap as a second-half substitute against Sweden on 15 November 2011, becoming the first-ever Bursaspor player to play for England in the club's history. [84]
