Daniel "Dan" Crowley (born 3 August 1997) is a professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Arsenal. Crowley began his career at Aston Villa and has represented both England and the Republic of Ireland at youth levels.

Early Life

Dan Crowley was born in Coventry and attended Newman Catholic School in Coventry. He started his career at the youth academy of Aston Villa.

Club career

Aston Villa

While at Aston Villa, Crowley made appearances for the under-16s at the age of 12 and the under-18s at age 15.[1] Crowley was also involved in Aston Villa Under-19's victorious NextGen Series campaign during the 2012–13 season, despite being only 16, and appeared in the 2-0 final win against Chelsea.[1][2] While with Villa, Crowley earned plenty of plaudits for his passing ability, with his playing style described as being similar to current England international Jack Wilshere.[3]

Arsenal

During the summer of 2013, Crowley moved from Aston Villa to Arsenal, before signing his first professional contract with the club in 2014 on his 17th birthday.[4] Aston Villa strongly opposed the move's terms under the Elite Player Performance Plan and filed a formal complaint at the fixed rate, limited compensation received for the player due him being under-16, noting that he had represented their under-18 side in the league that season and should be treated as an under-18.[5] Villa's Academy Director, Bryan Jones, commented that compensation at the level Villa received for Crowley, only £209,000 for nine years of investment, would deincentivise clubs from developing young players in the English game.[6]

After impressive performances with the Arsenal under-18s and under-21s in his first two seasons, Crowley was included in the Arsenal squad for their pre-season tour of Singapore in summer 2015.[7]

Loan to Barnsley

On 31 July 2015, it was announced that Crowley would join League One side Barnsley on loan until 3 January 2016.[8] He made his professional debut for the club on 9 August 2015 in their opening fixture against Chesterfield, starting the match and playing 57 minutes as Barnsley lost 3–1.[9] On 26 August, he scored his first goal for the club in the 60th minute of a Football League Cup match at home against Everton, but could not help prevent a comeback from the away side as Barnsley lost 5–3 after extra time.[10] On 30 October, Crowley's loan was terminated early as he was recalled by Arsenal.[11][12] After Crowley was recalled Barnsley manager Lee Johnson, himself an Arsenal academy graduate, expressed his disappointment at losing the player, claiming he is "the best 18-year-old I've ever seen".[13][14]

International career

Crowley is eligible to play for both England and Ireland at international level, qualifying for Ireland through his grandparents.[15]

Crowley made his debut for England's under-16 team against Northern Ireland in October 2011.[16] He was called up to Ireland's under-16 squad in January 2012 for a double-header against Portugal,[17] going on to make appearances for both countries at under-16 level over the course of the 2011–2012 season.[18][19][20]

In August 2012, Crowley made the first of twelve appearances for England under-17s in the St George’s Park International Tournament.[20][21] In February 2013, the Football Association of Ireland announced that Crowley had pledged his allegiance to Ireland and selected him for two under-17 friendlies against Croatia.[22][23][24] However, the following month, Crowley returned to the England set-up to play in the 2013 UEFA European Under-17 Championship elite round - his first international games in official competition at any level.[25][26] He made his final appearance for England under-17s against Italy in September 2013.[20] He was named again in an England under-17 squad in January 2014.[27]

In September 2015, it was reported in the Irish Independent that Crowley was on the verge of declaring for Ireland,[28] with Republic of Ireland senior manager Martin O'Neill confirming that he had spoken to the player's father.[29] However, in October 2015, Crowley received his first call-up to an England under-19 squad.[30]
