Jack Robinson (born 1 September 1993) is an English professional footballer who plays as a defender for EFL Championship club Sheffield United.
[2] Having progressed through Liverpool's academy system, he made his senior debut on 9 May 2010 as a late substitute at Hull City in manager Rafael Benítez's final game in charge of the club.
[4] Robinson's appearance made him the youngest player to have played in a first team match for the club, at age 16 years and 250 days, breaking Max Thompson's 36-year-old record.
His first appearance of the season came in April 2011 in a 1–1 draw at Arsenal as a replacement for the injured Fábio Aurélio;[7] his performance against Theo Walcott in this game earned him a place in the BBC Sport pundit Garth Crooks's team of the week.
[15] He also started in the next Europa League game against Udinese, as well as featuring in all four of the club's matches in the domestic cup competitions during the season.
With opportunities at Anfield limited, so as to gain first team experience, Robinson was loaned out to Championship side Wolverhampton Wanderers in February 2013 for the remainder of the 2012–13 season.
[16] He went straight into the Wolves starting line-up in place of the experienced Stephen Ward and soon established himself as a key player in their ultimately unsuccessful battle against relegation.
He made the left-back position his own after a difficult start, but his loan ended early after he jarred his knee in the 1–1 draw against Birmingham City on 14 March 2015.
