Ben Richards-Everton (born 17 October 1991) is an English professional footballer who plays for Scottish club Dunfermline Athletic.

Club career

Born in Birmingham, West Midlands,[1] Richards-Everton joined Hinckley United from Cradley Town, where he spent two seasons with The Knitters. Being regarded as one of the best defenders in the league, he left Hinckley United in March 2013, to join Conference Premier side Tamworth.[2] During December 2013, with continued good form, Richards-Everton attracted the attention of many higher English clubs.[3] Tamworth were expected to sell the defender in January 2014 before his contact expired, but he stayed at the club until August 2014. On 22 August 2014, Richards-Everton signed for Partick Thistle,[4] after impressing on a trial period earlier in the summer. He was immediately loaned to Scottish League One club Airdrieonians, making his debut on 23 August 2014, in a 3–0 defeat against Dunfermline Athletic.[5]

On 21 March 2015, Richards-Everton made his debut for Partick Thistle, coming on as a 90th-minute substitute for Steven Lawless, the goalscorer in a 1–0 victory against Inverness Caley Thistle at Firhill Stadium.[6] Richards-Everton made his first start for Partick Thistle in a 0–0 draw with Motherwell playing the full 90 mins. At the end of the 2014–15 season Richards-Everton was released by Thistle, and in June 2015 he signed a one-year contract with Dunfermline Athletic.[7]

Richards-Everton made his first appearance for the side in a 3–0 friendly victory over local rivals East Fife,[8] whilst his first competitive start came against Arbroath in the Scottish Challenge Cup.[9] His first league appearance was against Brechin City in a 6–1 win,[10] and he scored his first ever senior goal, and his first for the Pars, in a win against league rivals Stranraer on his 24th birthday.[11]

International career

In November 2013, Richards-Everton was called up to the England C squad, to face a Latvia under-23 side.[12]
