Lukas Jutkiewicz

Jutkiewicz was born in Southampton, and joined the Saints Academy as a ten-year-old after playing Tyro League football with Eastleigh Earls and Winsor. He attended Highfield Primary School and also attended The Mountbatten School in Romsey. After three years at the academy, he left but continued to play Tyro League football with Brendon Youth, before signing for Swindon Town.

Swindon Town

Jutkiewicz made his Swindon Town debut at the age of 17, as a substitute in a 2–1 defeat at Swansea City's Liberty Stadium in April 2006. A week later, he had his first start, in a 2–1 win away to Scunthorpe United. Jutkiewicz received the club's Young Player of the Year award at the end of the season, and signed his first professional contract, of three years, in July 2006. He had to wait until December for his first league start of the 2006–07 season, which came in a 2–0 defeat to Mansfield Town. In the next game, playing as a lone striker against top-of-the-table Walsall, he scored his first senior goal, had another attempt cleared off the line, and was fouled for a penalty converted by Christian Roberts to give Swindon a 2–0 victory. On 17 March 2007, Jutkiewicz agreed to join Premier League club Everton. The contract, to come into force when the transfer window opened at the end of the season, was for four years, and the fee was undisclosed, but reported as £400,000 potentially rising to £1 million. He went on to score five goals during the 2006–07 season to help Swindon gain…

In addition to his country of birth, England, Jutkiewicz was also eligible to play for the Republic of Ireland through his Irish grandmother and for Poland by way of his Polish grandfather. In October 2007, he told Everton TV that, if Poland wanted him, he was ready, but, speaking in 2009, the player insisted that he had made no decision on which country to represent, nor had he been contacted by any of the three associations. In 2008, the media claimed that he was also eligible to represent Lithuania, with the player speculating about that in 2014 again; still, no interest for that was registered by either party. In December 2016, it was reported that Martin O'Neill was interested in recruiting Jutkiewicz for his Ireland squad. Ultimately, however, Jutkiewicz failed to gain international honours for any country.
