Caolan Lavery

Caolan Owen Lavery (born 22 October 1992) is a Canadian-born Northern Irish professional footballer who plays as a forward for League Two club Bradford City.

He has played in the English Football League for Sheffield Wednesday and Sheffield United, as well as on loan at Southend United, Plymouth Argyle, Chesterfield, Portsmouth, Rotherham and Bury.

He has represented both Canada and Northern Ireland at youth international level and is one of only a small number of footballers to have played for both Sheffield clubs.

Club Career

Early career

Lavery started his youth career in Canada, playing for the Red Deer Renegades. He then played with Northern Irish youth side Goodyear while having trials at Tottenham Hotspur, Portsmouth and Charlton Athletic. A successful trial at Ipswich Town saw him spend two years at the club before rejecting the offer of a new deal in late 2011 and leaving the club after his academy scholarship expired. He went on to have trials at Sunderland and Leicester City in November. In December 2011 Lavery was reported to be in talks with League Two club Bradford City.

Sheffield Wednesday

2012–13 season

Finally, in the summer of 2012, Lavery signed for Sheffield Wednesday to join their development squad. On 28 August 2012, Lavery was included in Sheffield Wednesday's first-team squad as an unused substitute for the League Cup tie against Premier League Fulham. A 1–0 win saw Sheffield Wednesday enter the third round of the competition, but Lavery failed to get on the pitch for that game, against Premier League outfit Southampton.

After continuing success in Sheffield Wednesday's development squad, Lavery was targeted by clubs for a possible loan deal and, on 25 January 2013, he signed for League Two side Southend United. He made his professional debut a week later on 2 February when Southend hosted Oxford United.

2013–14 season
