Timeline

1922

FourFourTwo magazine ranked him 22nd in their Top 50 Football League Players list.

1962

Hennessey is a cousin of Terry Hennessey, who earned 39 caps for Wales from 1962 to 1972.

Born in Bangor, Gwynedd and raised in Beaumaris, Anglesey, Hennessey is a fluent Welsh language speaker.

and was educated at Ysgol David Hughes but switched to Connah's Quay High School as it was easier to travel to Manchester.

1987

Wayne Robert Hennessey (born 24 January 1987) is a Welsh professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for club Nottingham Forest and the Wales national team.

Hennessey's first professional games saw him set a new Football League record for consecutive clean sheets while on loan at Stockport County.

He played 166 times for Wolverhampton Wanderers over eight seasons, including three years at Premier League level.

2003

Hennessey began as a trainee at Manchester City but was released in 2003, whereupon he joined the youth academy at Wolverhampton Wanderers.

2005

After progressing through the ranks, he signed his first professional contract in April 2005.

After remaining in Wolves' reserve and youth teams during the 2005–06 season, Hennessey was sent on trial with Bristol City in July 2006 with a view to a loan move to gain first team experience but was recalled to Wolves after an injury to their first-choice goalkeeper Matt Murray.

2006

He did go back to Bristol City in August 2006, however, on a one-month loan deal, but he did not make an appearance and returned to his parent club early due to an arm injury.

2007

A full international since 2007, Hennessey is Wales' third most-capped player and its most capped goalkeeper, with over 100 caps.

To gain first-team football, Hennessey joined League Two side Stockport County in January 2007 on a one-month loan.

On his senior debut against Boston United, he kept a clean sheet and after keeping another five clean sheets in successive matches, his loan spell was extended by an extra month.

He went on to set a Football League record of nine successive clean sheets and wins.

Stockport broke the 119-year-old record, when they beat Swindon Town 3–0 on 3 March 2007.

After this accomplishment, he was named the League Two Player of the Month for February 2007.

His feat also means he now holds County's record for the longest period without conceding a goal, beating Harry Hardy's 85-year-old record.

His record now stands at 857 minutes, from the start of his competitive club debut, against Boston United on 13 January 2007, until Oliver Allen of Barnet scored on 10 March 2007.

He therefore did not concede in his first nine-and-a-half matches of competitive club football.

Hennessey was recalled by Wolves in April 2007 after another injury to first-choice Matt Murray, and found himself on the substitutes bench for several games.

When Murray broke his shoulder on the eve of Wolves' Championship play-off semi-final first leg against local rivals West Bromwich Albion, Hennessey stepped in to make his Wolves debut.

With Murray sidelined for the whole of the 2007–08 season with yet another injury, Hennessey became firmly established at the club's number one, being an ever-present in the league and signing a new extended contract.

At the end of the season he was named in the 2007–08 PFA Championship Team of the Year as well as being named Wolves' Player of the Season.

2008

The 2008–09 season saw a strong start for Hennessey and Wolves with eight victories out of the first nine league games.

This fine run ended against promotion rivals Reading with a 0–3 loss begun by an own goal from Hennessey.

Soon after manager Mick McCarthy dropped him to the bench, citing mental fatigue as the reason.

Reserve keeper Carl Ikeme deputised and impressed enough to leave Hennessey on the sidelines until an injury ruled him out for the majority of the season.

Hennessey then regained and kept his place in goal for the remainder of the season which culminated with promotion to the Premier League as champions after a five-year absence.

2009

Hennessey began the club's 2009–10 Premier League campaign as first choice goalkeeper, making his 100th senior appearance for the club in a 2–2 draw at Stoke City in October 2009.

2010

In July 2010, Hennessey extended his contract with Wolves to run until the summer of 2015.

The following season began with Hahnemann retaining the number one spot until his own loss of form saw Hennessey return to the starting line-up in November 2010.

He then held on to the spot for the remainder of the campaign as the club narrowly avoided relegation on the final day.

2011

During the 2011–12 season, Hennessey was part of the Wolves defence that went a club record of 30 consecutive league games without a clean sheet.

2012

They finally ended this with a goalless draw at Sunderland in April 2012, but by then the team was rooted to the bottom of the table.

Despite the game halting this run, it brought bad news for Hennessey as he suffered a torn cruciate knee ligament during it that was due to keep him sidelined until Autumn 2012.

2014

After several injury setbacks, he moved to join Crystal Palace in 2014.

2015

However, after conceding four goals in two successive games, he was replaced by the more experienced Marcus Hahnemann and remained on the bench for the rest of the season as the club finished 15th.

2016

He played 132 total games in eight seasons at Palace, including their defeat in the 2016 FA Cup Final, and then played for Burnley and Nottingham Forest.

He was in the Wales squads for the UEFA European Championship in 2016 and 2020, reaching the semi-finals of the former, and was also chosen for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
