Mark Davies (born February 18, 1988 in Wolverhampton) is an English football player, signed to Wolverhampton Wanderers of the Championship.

[edit] Career

Davies, a former student of Pool Hayes Community School in Willenhall, is a product of Wolves' youth academy. He had already captained the England U-17 team in a European Under-17 Championship qualifier against Northern Ireland at Molineux, by the time he signed professional forms aged 17 in 2005.

The midfielder soon made his senior debut on 20 August 2005 in a 2-0 defeat at Leeds United, and went on to feature frequently throughout the season, finishing it with a regular starting place in Glenn Hoddle's side.

However, he suffered a cartilage problem in pre-season that kept him on the sidelines for most of the 2006/07 season. His injury problems grew further as a shoulder problem caused him to miss all of the following season.
