Luke Terry O'Nien (born 21 November 1994) is a professional footballer who plays for Wycombe Wanderers as a Midfielder.

Club career

Watford

O'Nien joined Watford as an Under-9 and impressed throughout his time in the youth ranks with his technical influence on the pitch.[3]

Having put pen to paper on his first professional contract at Vicarage Road in July 2013,[4] O'Nien was then called up by the first team to the pre-season friendly tour in Italy after he impressed staff during training.[5] O'Nien was then given number thirty-two shirt.[6] O'Nien had been an unused substitute on a handful of occasions during the 2013–14 season. The midfielder finally made his Watford debut as an 88th-minute substitute in a 3–0 win at home to Barnsley on 15 March 2014.[7] After the match, O'Nien reacted to his debut against Barnsley.[8]

On 27 March 2014, O'Nien signed a one-month loan deal with Isthmian League Premier Division side Wealdstone.[9] O'Nien made his debut as a late substitute in a win over Billericay Town on 31 March 2014, while his first start came three days later on 3 April 2014 in a 3–0 success over East Thurrock United. He then started the final game of the season, a 2–0 home win against Canvey Island. Following his loan spell, on 13 May 2014, O'Nien signed a new one-year deal with the Hornets.[10] O'Nien expressed delight over signing a new contract with the club.[11]

In August 2014, O'Nien returned to Wealdstone, now a Conference South side, on a season-long loan deal.[12] O'Nien made thirty-five appearances for them and scored five times – against Weston-super-Mare[13] and Basingstoke Town.[14] His second loan spell at Wealdstone proved to be successful for O'Nien.[15]

Following Watford's promotion to the Premier League in 2015, O'Nien was one of three released by the club following the expiration of his contract.[16]

Wycombe Wanderers

On 25 July 2015, O'Nien signed for League Two side Wycombe Wanderers on a one-year deal, having had a successful trial with the club.[17]

Personal life

O'Nien was born in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire. His father Terry was a professional golfer.[18] O'Nien qualifies to play international football for both England as well as Singapore.[19] He qualifies to play for Singapore through his Singapore-born maternal grandfather; his great-uncle was politician Lim Kim San.[20]
