George Evans (footballer, born 1994)

George Evans (born 13 December 1994) is an English footballer who plays as a Midfielder or centre-back for Reading.

Evans joined Manchester City at the age of six. After several seasons in Manchester City's academy, Evans first came to prominence with several appearances on the bench for City during the 2012–13 season, although he was ultimately not given a debut for the senior team. In the following season, Evans began playing for the Elite Development Squad before being loaned to Crewe Alexandra at the end of October. Within a week he was given his first senior cap, being named in the starting line-up for Crewe's home league game against Bradford City, against whom he played a full 90 minutes. Evans' first goal for Crewe Alexandra came on 23 November against local rivals Port Vale.

On 30 January 2015, he joined Scunthorpe United on loan until the end of the season. Evans made 16 appearances during his loan spell, scoring once. On 22 September 2015, Evans made his First Team debut for Manchester City when he came on as a substitute during a 4-1 win against Sunderland in the League Cup. In doing so, he became the second Manchester City player to represent the club at all levels from under-8s right through to the senior team, after Chris Chantler.

On 20 October 2015, Evans joined Football League One club Walsall on a one-month loan deal. He made his Walsall debut on the same day against Barnsley and scored the opening goal in a 0–2 away win. On 24 November 2015, after "playing week in, week out", he extended his loan at Walsall until 9 January 2016 and was then extended again until 26 January 2016, the maximum allowed time for an emergency loan deal. On 16 January 2016 he was recalled by parent club Manchester City as an offer had been made for a permanent move away from the club.

On 19 January 2016, Evans joined Championship side Reading on a three-and-a-half-year deal until 2019. Evans scored his first goal for the club in a 1-1 draw with Derby County on 1 October 2016.

As of match played 26 December 2016.
