Callum Henry McManaman (born 25 April 1991) is an English footballer who plays for Wigan Athletic, as a striker.

Club career

Early career

McManaman was born on 25 April 1991 in Huyton. He grew up as an Everton supporter,[4] and joined the club's youth system when he was seven years old. After being released by the club at the age of sixteen, he signed for Wigan Athletic on a free transfer in 2007. He made his debut for the reserves toward the end of the 2007–08 season.[5] He became a regular in the reserve team during the second half of the following season, appearing ten times and scoring four goals.[6] He then made his first team debut on 24 May 2009 in a Premier League match against Portsmouth, becoming Wigan's youngest ever player to play in the Premier League.[7] In July 2009, he signed his first professional contract with the club.[8] McManaman remained in the reserve team during the 2009–10 season, scoring twice in a 5–0 win against Burnley.[9] Although he didn't appear in the first team, he impressed enough to be offered a contract extension.[10]

McManaman was an unused substitute in the first team at the start of the 2010–11 season, but Wigan manager Roberto Martínez felt the player was not yet ready for Premier League football.[11] On 30 November 2010, he made his first appearance in over 18 months when he came on as a substitute in a League Cup match against Arsenal. Martínez had reportedly been impressed with McManaman's progress over the previous few months, and suggested the player would feature more regularly later in the season.[12] He scored his first goal for Wigan in his first start for the club against Hull City in the FA Cup on 8 January 2011.[13] In April 2011, he extended his contract for a further two years, keeping him at the club until 2013.[14]

Blackpool

On 17 October 2011 it was announced that McManaman had been signed by Blackpool in a three month loan deal.[15] He made his debut a day later, appearing as a substitute against Doncaster Rovers,[4] and made his first start for the club in the following game against Nottingham Forest.[16] On 3 December 2011, he scored his first league goal in a 1–0 win against Reading.[17]

Return to Wigan Athletic

After he returned from his loan spell at Blackpool he scored against Swindon Town in the FA Cup on 7 January 2012.[18] McManaman returned to Premier League football at the DW Stadium on 16 January 2012 as an 81st minute substitute in a 1-0 defeat to Manchester City.[19]

McManaman scored as a substitute in the 89th minute in Wigan's first League Cup game of the 2012-2013 season capping off a 1-4 win over Nottingham Forest.[20] On 17 February 2013, McManaman scored and was named man-of-the-match in a 4-1 win against Huddersfield Town in the fifth round of the FA Cup, in the process helping Wigan to reach the quarter-finals for the first time in 26 years.[21] In the quarter-finals, he scored against former club Everton in a 3-0 win at Goodison Park, to send Wigan to the semi-finals at Wembley.[22]

After the Everton game, McManaman made his first Premier League [clarification needed] against Newcastle United on 17 March 2013.[23] Early in the second half McManaman caused an uproar with Newcastle's players, coaching staff and fans when he tackled Newcastle's Massadio Haidara at knee height, 'a high lunge',[23] though no foul was given.[23] Referee Mark Halsey claimed he didn't see the incident,[citation needed] and both Halsey as well as McManaman drew heavy criticism by former players Andrew Cole,[citation needed] Dwight Yorke,[citation needed] Mark Lawrenson[citation needed] and Pat Nevin[citation needed] as well as Haidara's team mate Ryan Taylor.[24]

International career

In June 2011, McManaman, along with team mate Lee Nicholls, was included in the England under-20's squad for the 2011 FIFA U-20 World Cup,[25] the first time a Wigan Athletic player has been involved in the tournament.[26] He made his debut in the country's first group match – a 0–0 draw against North Korea,[27] and went on to play in all of England's games during the tournament before the team were knocked out by Nigeria.
