Nathan Dyer
Nathan Antony Jonah Dyer (born 29 November 1987) is an English former professional footballer who played as a winger, spending most of his career at Swansea City, where he made over 300 appearances. He started playing as a teenager at Southampton, making the first team. He has also had loan spells with Sheffield United, Burnley and Leicester City, where he was part of the team that won the 2015–16 Premier League.
Dyer was born and raised in Trowbridge, Wiltshire. His father loved cricket, and his mother was an amateur sprinter. Dyer grew up supporting Manchester United.
Dyer joined the Southampton F.C. Academy as a teenager and was a member of the Southampton youth team that reached the finals of the FA Youth Cup in 2005, although he did not make his playing debut until the following season. Ultimately, the team lost on aggregate to Ipswich Town.
Dyer made his first team debut for Southampton on 26 December 2005, as a substitute after 87 minutes, in a match that resulted in a 2–0 win over Crewe Alexandra. In late 2005, he enjoyed a successful spell on loan to Burnley, where he scored two goals against Millwall and Crewe during a total of five appearances. He was recalled, despite pleas from Steve Cotterill to stay until the end of the season. After his loan to Burnley, Dyer signed a new contract at Southampton, where he played on the first team squad for the rest of his time with the club.
Dyer scored his first league goal for Southampton during a match that ended in a 3–2 defeat against Watford in September 2007. This took his Southampton goal tally up to three, having already scored in League Cup matches against Southend United and Yeovil Town. His performance earned him the interest of Southampton's rival in the South Coast derby Portsmouth. The club was keen to sign him, but their public pursuit of him drew criticism from Southampton manager George Burley.
On 24 July 2008, after a long period of uncertainty and an extended contract dispute, Dyer signed a new three-year deal with Southampton, keeping him at the club until 2011. Dyer was excluded from the first team and left out of the pre-season preparations until he signed the contract.
In September 2008, after failing to make it onto Southampton's first team and establish himself under managers Jan Poortvliet and Mark Wotte, Dyer was sent to Sheffield United on loan until December, with the option of a permanent deal in January 2009. The move was part of a loan swap deal, with Jordan Robertson joining Southampton for the same duration.
Dyer made his first appearance for the Blades the next day as a late substitute in a match that resulted in a 2–1 victory over Watford. He was unable to gain a permanent place on the Sheffield team, and he played less than thirty minutes in a Blades shirt over the next three months. He made the first team starting line-up on 20 December, when he scored his first goal for the club in a match that resulted in a 2–2 draw with Palace.
