Jack Butland (born March 10, 1993 in Bristol , England ) is an English football goalkeeper . He has been under contract with Stoke City since 2013 .

Career

societies

Jack Butland was inducted into the Birmingham City Junior Academy in 2007 . There he played in the U-18s and for the reserve team and received the club's internal “Young Player of the Season” award for his achievements in these teams in the 2009/10 season.

In May 2011 he was officially included in the first professional squad, but initially did not appear there, but was loaned to the Football League Two at Cheltenham Town . In the fourth division he played twelve times from September 2011 to January 2012. He then returned to Birmingham, but was awarded again in February to Cheltenham, where he was again twelve times in goal.

In April 2012, however, he was ordered back to Birmingham City because their first goalkeeper Boaz Myhill had injured and Butland was needed on the bench.

In the fall of 2013 he moved to Barnsley FC on loan until the end of the year .

National team

Soon after moving to Birmingham City, Butland was named to the English U-16 team. He made his debut there on October 3, 2008 against Northern Ireland in the Victory Shield . In total he was used four times in this age group and remained undefeated with three wins and one draw.

Then he moved up to the U-17 , for which he ran nine times. Here he experienced his first defeat in the national jersey, but was also successful with seven wins and one draw and won the European Championship in 2010 . In this tournament he was initially only a substitute for Sam Johnstone , but convinced when he was used in the last group game - when England had already qualified for the semi-finals - and then held the regular place. The UEFA technical team and Spanish goalkeeper Adrián Ortolá named Butland to the team of the tournament.

Butland then skipped the U-18 and was immediately transferred to the U-19. With this he played four games, which ended with two wins, one draw and one defeat.

With the U-20 national team , he took part in the 2011 Junior World Championship . In the group stage, he and his team only finished third after three goalless draws, but still managed to move into the round of 16 as the best third-placed place - there they lost 1-0 to Nigeria and were eliminated from the tournament without scoring their own. The FIFA Technical Study Group identified Butland alongside Billy Knott as an “outstanding player” on his team and described him as a “calm and confident goalkeeper with good reflexes, strong on high balls”.

He was then appointed as the last level of training in the U-21 and stood for this in a total of six games in goal, of which he won five and lost one.

He was called up as the third goalkeeper in the A-selection for the 2012 European Championship after John Ruddy , who was actually planned as the third goalkeeper, broke his finger and therefore had to cancel. He was not nominated for the 2014 World Cup or the 2016 European Championship . At the 2018 World Cup , he was part of the English squad again, but had to be content with the reserve role behind Jordan Pickford and was not used in any game.
