David Unsworth



         


David Unsworth is an English football (soccer) player, born in 1973. He currently plays for Portsmouth F.C.

Unsworth began his career at Everton F.C., and was part of the 1995 FA Cup winning team. After several impressive seasons at Everton Unsworth transferred to West Ham United F.C. for the 1997/98 season. After only a season he was signed by Birmingham based club Aston Villa F.C. for £3million. However, his family didn't settle in Birmingham and after only a month, before the season had even begun, he returned to Everton, the Liverpool based club paying Villa the same £3million they had only a few weeks before.

Unsworth was a consistent performer in his second spell with Everton, being first choice left-back, but also scoring some vital goals in his role as dead-ball specialist. At the end of the 2003/04 season however his contract expired, and disagreement with the club over the length of a new contract led to Unsworth leaving on a free transfer.

He was signed by Portsmouth for the 2004/05 season. He made his debut in a 1-1 home draw with Birmingham City F.C., scoring the equaliser from a penalty.

Unsworth has been capped ? times by England.
