Michael Richardson

Newcastle United

Richardson started his career at non-League club Walker Central, and was working for Newcastle City Council as an electrician before signing for Newcastle United in July 2010. Richardson left school when he was sixteen. He appeared on the bench for Newcastle United for the first time against Fulham on 1 February 2011 but was not used as a substitute. Although he returned to the bench for matches against Arsenal, Everton, and Aston Villa, he failed to make a substitute appearance that season. He impressed while playing for the Magpies' U-18 side and the reserves, and subsequently signed on a month's loan for League One side Leyton Orient on 5 August 2011. Two months before going out on loan, Richardson signed a contract extension with the club. Then, Richardson signed further extension for the next two years. Richardson was released by the club on 23 May 2014.
