Michael West (born 9 February 1991) is an English footballer who currently plays as a midfielder for Whitehawk, on loan from Ebbsfleet United.[2]

Career

He started his career as a trainee with Fulham before joining the Ebbsfleet United PASE youth system.[3] He went on to sign his first professional contract with the club in January 2009, making his debut in a 1–0 win over Northwich Victoria in the Football Conference. A series of impressive performances, including scoring a brace in a 2-2 draw against Luton Town, drawing the attention of many league clubs, with Fulham, Stevenage and Portsmouth all rumoured to have been interested in acquiring his services. In July 2012, he joined newly promoted Football League One side Crewe Alexandra for a nominal compensation fee.[4] He made his professional debut for Crewe on 20 October 2012, in a 2–2 draw with Walsall, coming on as a substitute for Max Clayton.

On 26 August 2013 he joined Conference National side Hereford United on loan for a month, making his debut on the same day in a 2–1 defeat to Alfreton Town.[5] He rejoined Ebbsfleet in January 2014.[6] A serious injury early in his second spell at Ebbsfleet meant that he didn't play for a year. He made his comeback from injury as a substitute in a 3-0 win over Whitehawk, scoring the third goal. Injuries continued to hamper his progress, although West did get the fourth goal in a 4-1 FA Trophy win against Molesey.
