Michael Johnson is a former English professional footballer. Johnson was a product of the Leeds United, SBV Excelsior, Everton and Manchester City youth academies. He made his Premier League debut for City during the 2006?07 season and went on to become somewhat of a first team regular. While with City he was an England youth international, for both the under-19 and under-21 teams. Several injury setbacks that started during the 2008?09 season hampered his progress and he went on to only make four appearances for City in his final five years of his contract, playing his final game in a League Cup tie against Scunthorpe United in 2009. During the 2011?12 season Johnson was loaned out to Leicester City on a season long loan deal, but it was cut short due to injury. He was released from his contract with Manchester City in December 2012, over three years since his last appearance for the club.
