Career

In the club

Sam Johnstone joined Manchester United Youth Academy in the 2010-11 season.

In July 2011, he was loaned to the Football League One club Oldham Athletic , as both the regular and the substitute goalkeeper had been canceled due to injuries. After two friendlies in the preparation for the season, the then 18-year-old was renounced. The loan was canceled and Johnstone loaned for four months to his home club Scunthorpe United , where he played twelve games as a goalkeeper during this time.

He then returned to the Manchester United youth academy , where he was promoted to the reserve team of the first team. For the 2012/13 season Johnstone was appointed to the club's first team as the third goalkeeper behind David de Gea and Anders Lindegaard .

At the beginning of the 2013-14 season, Johnstone was loaned to Yeovil Town for three months . Due to an injury, he was only able to play one game. On January 31, 2014, Johnstone was awarded to the Doncaster Rovers for four weeks . The loan was later extended until the end of the season. In Doncaster, Johnstone made 18 league appearances.

Johnstone returned to Manchester for the 2014/15 season and was fourth goalkeeper behind David de Gea, Anders Lindegaard and Ben Amos. On October 27, 2014, he returned to the Doncaster Rovers until January 3, 2015. At the beginning of January the loan was extended until January 28th. After nine appearances, Johnstone was loaned to Preston North End on January 12, 2015 until the end of the season . For the second half of the 2016/17 season , Johnstone joined Aston Villa on loan.
