David Amoo

David Oluwaseun Segun Amoo (born 13 April 1991) is an English professional footballer who plays as a winger for club Ebbsfleet United.

Amoo played for Millwall as a youth, scoring nine goals in 20 games for the under-18's in the 2006–07 season.

He left London at 16 years of age to sign for Liverpool in July 2007.

He was in the Liverpool Academy squad for the FA Youth Cup final in 2009 when they lost 6–2 to the Arsenal Academy.

He began his career at Liverpool, making his debut in the UEFA Europa League in July 2010.

He spent the 2010–11 and 2011–12 seasons on loan at Milton Keynes Dons, Hull City and Bury, before signing with Preston North End in May 2012.

He signed a new two-year contract with Liverpool in 2010, having successfully worked his way through the reserves to train with the first-team at Melwood in 2009.

He was named in Liverpool's 2010–11 UEFA Europa League Third qualifying round squad for a match on 28 July 2010, and made his debut for the club the following day, starting in a 2–0 away win in a tie against FK Rabotnički at the Philip II Arena in Skopje, Macedonia.

On 28 February, he joined Championship side Hull City on loan until the end of the 2010–11 season.

He made his "Tigers" debut coming on as a replacement for Jay Simpson in a 1–0 win at Nottingham Forest on 5 March.

He scored his first goal in senior football in a 1–1 draw at Queens Park Rangers on 25 April.

Unable to break into Nigel Pearson's first-team, he made one start and six substitute appearances during his time at the KC Stadium.

However, Kenny Dalglish replaced Roy Hodgson as manager in January 2011, and felt that Amoo was not strong enough to compete for a first-team place for the "Reds".

On 25 January 2011, he joined League One club Milton Keynes Dons on a one-month loan, and made his Football League debut for the Dons later that day as a 65th-minute substitute against Leyton Orient.

He failed to break into Karl Robinson's first-team however, and made just two further substitute appearances at Stadium MK before returning to Anfield on 23 February.

On 23 September 2011, Amoo joined League One side Bury on a one-month loan deal.

He made his debut for the "Shakers" the next day, coming on as a substitute for Mike Jones in a 0–0 draw with Milton Keynes Dons at Gigg Lane.

On 1 October, he scored his first goal for Bury, a glancing header on 67 minutes to give Bury the lead in a 3–1 victory over Yeovil Town.

His performance at Bury earned him praise from teammate Peter Sweeney and manager Richie Barker extended Amoo's loan, initially until 1 January and then eventually until the end of the 2011–12 season.

He scored his second Bury goal in a 1–0 win over Preston North End on 26 November.

Amoo then scored two goals in two matches, in defeats to Exeter City and Milton Keynes Dons.

Throughout the season, Amoo made 27 league appearances for the club, scoring four goals, and missed a combined ten games from separate injuries.

Amoo agreed to join Preston North End in May 2012 when his contract expired with Liverpool on 1 July.

He made his debut for the "Lilywhites" on the opening day of the 2012–13 season, coming on as a substitute for David Buchanan 56 minutes into a 0–0 draw with Colchester United at Deepdale.

His first goal for the club came on 3 November, in a 3–0 victory over Yeovil in the FA Cup.

After making only one start, with the rest of his appearances coming from off the bench, Amoo was linked with a move to League One rivals Tranmere Rovers, but manager Graham Westley refused to sell him.

He moved on to Tranmere Rovers January 2013.

He joined Carlisle United in June 2013 and would win the club's Player of the Year award for the 2013–14 season, though Carlisle were relegated out of League One.

Amoo did however, leave Preston in January 2013 when his contract was cancelled by mutual consent.

On 9 January 2013, Amoo joined Tranmere Rovers on a contract to run until the end of the 2012–13 season.

Amoo expressed happiness at getting a second chance to join Rovers after having chosen Preston ahead of Tranmere the previous year.

He scored on his debut for the "Whites" two days later, in a 2–0 win over Crawley Town at Prenton Park.

However, he found his first-team opportunities at the club were limited and Amoo was among five players to be released by manager Ronnie Moore at the end of the season.

On 13 June 2013, Amoo signed a two-year deal with Carlisle United, becoming the "Cumbrians" first summer signing.

Following the move, Amoo said he was motivated to join the club to link up with manager Greg Abbott.

He moved north of the border to play for Scottish Premiership club Partick Thistle in July 2015.

After two seasons in Scotland he returned south and joined Cambridge United in May 2017.

He opted to leave Cambridge in favour of a move to Port Vale in July 2019 and helped the club to win promotion out of League Two via the play-offs in 2022.

He joined Stevenage in August 2022 and moved on to Crewe Alexandra five months later.

He joined non-League side Ebbsfleet United in June 2023.
