Cameron Dawson

Cameron Miles Dawson (born 7 July 1995) is an English footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for EFL League One club Rotherham United.

[5] Following the absence of second choice goalkeeper, Adam Davies, he was named in the substitute bench for a match against Yeovil Town on 14 September 2013.

[8] After his loan spell at Wycombe Wanderers ended, Dawson started his 2016–17 season on the substitute bench for three matches.

[9] But following an injury of Keiren Westwood against Brighton & Hove Albion on 1 October 2016, he came on as a second-half substitute to make his Sheffield Wednesday's debut and conceded a goal from Anthony Knockaert, as they lost 2–1.

[17] Following his loan spell at Chesterfield ended, he made his first appearance of the season, starting the whole game, in a 2–0 win against Carlisle United in the third round replay of the FA Cup.

[19] Manager Jos Luhukay gave him his first league start of the season, which came on 21 April 2018 against Reading and helped Sheffield Wednesday keep a clean sheet, as they won 3–0.

[20] He then played the remaining two league matches of the season, including earning another clean sheet against Wolverhampton Wanderers on 28 April 2018.

"[26] He then played a role against Bristol City on 7 October 2018, setting up a goal for Lucas João, who went on to score twice, winning 2–1.

[33] Dawson did, however, go on to make several more appearances that season, including the 2–2 away draw against Norwich City on 19 April 2019, with Keiren Westwood injured.

[36] However, Dawson lost his first choice goalkeeper role to Westwood and was placed on the substitute bench for a month, though he did appear once against Everton in the third round of the League Cup.

[37] It wasn't until on 18 October 2019 when he returned to the starting line–up following the absence of Westwood, as Sheffield Wednesday drew 1–1 against Cardiff City.

[44] Dawson continued as a first-team regular, and by the time the season was suspended because of the COVID-19 pandemic, he had made twenty–four league appearances.

[53] But on 18 November 2014, Dawson's time at Alfreton Town ended when he was recalled by his parent club with seventeen appearances.

[57] He made his debut for the club, starting the whole game, in a 1–0 loss against Bristol City in the first round of the League Cup.

[59] Having made two appearances for the side, Dawson returned to his parent club after both teams failed to reach an agreement to extend.

[60] On 6 December 2017, Dawson was sent on an emergency loan deal to Chesterfield, following first-choice keeper Joe Anyon breaking his arm in a 2–0 EFL Trophy defeat to Fleetwood Town the previous day.

[65] Sheffield Wednesday manager Darren Moore confirmed the move was for Dawson to get game time, following his long-term injury the previous campaign.

Dawson kept 19 clean sheets in 50 games for the Grecians, describing the club's successful promotion campaign as the highlight of his career.
