Sean Davis

Fulham

Born in Clapham, London, Davis attended Ernest Bevin College in Tooting. Davis is a product of the Fulham youth system. He is one of the few players to have played at all four professional levels of football in England with the same club and is also the only Fulham player to achieve this. He made his first-team debut for Fulham aged just 17 years and 25 days in 1996. Davis progressed under managers Keegan, Jean Tigana and later Chris Coleman. At the end of the 2002–03 season, Davis was named as the Player of the Season. He attracted interest from Everton and Middlesbrough during that season, more so after he had handed in a transfer request citing his "ambition to further his career". However, Fulham were reluctant to sell Davis until they had found a suitable replacement. A transfer to either Everton or Middlesbrough never occurred as Davis was injured during the summer and unable to pass a medical to switch clubs, so this kept him at Fulham for the 2003–04 season. Davis sustained a knee injury in a pre-season friendly match against ASK Voitsberg As a result of his sustained injury, his proposed move to Everton was broken down. After a month out injured, Davis made his return in the reserve match against Watford on 8 October 2003. A month later, Davis withdrew his transfer request, as he dedicated to Fulham by starting negotiations to sign a new contract. In an exclusive interview with the club, Davis says his attempted move in the summer transfer window…

After a 2002–03 campaign in which he firmly established his position in the Fulham starting line up Davis was called up to be part of the England squad that faced Australia, although he did not play.

During his time at Portsmouth, due to the influence of teammate Linvoy Primus and the Faith and Football organisation, Davis converted to Christianity. Since retiring, Davis has returned to Fulham as a columnist and commentator for their home matches.
