A diminutive winger, Connor has established himself in the Everton Under 18 side and was a regular in the reserve team. In the summer of 2007, Connor signed for Scottish First Division side Partick Thistle on a six-month loan deal. He made his debut as a substitute in a 1–1 draw with Stirling Albion on 4 August. His spell at Partick was blighted by injury. On 15 May 2008 it was announced Everton would not be renewing his contract.

He subsequently moved into the Welsh league system joining The New Saints in January 2009 [1] and made his debut for Bangor City in October that year. [2] In August 2012 he joined Airbus UK Broughton. [3]

International career

Connor represented the England U17 team in the 2005 Nordic Tournament.
