Ryan Tunnicliffe

On 1 July 2019, Tunnicliffe became Luton Town's third signing since winning promotion to the Championship.

On 29 July 2017, Tunnicliffe signed with Millwall on a two-year deal following his release from Fulham. After appearing for 31 times in the 2018–2019 season, he was released by Millwall in July 2019.

Tunnicliffe was given a two-match ban for the start of the 2015–16 season, a £5,000 fine and ordered to take an educational course after calling Middlesbrough's Patrick Bamford a "sausage boy" over Twitter.

After just two appearances for the Manchester United first team, Tunnicliffe joined Fulham for an undisclosed fee on 31 January 2014, along with fellow Manchester United reserve midfielder Larnell Cole. There he was reunited with former Manchester United coach René Meulensteen, then in charge of Fulham. He made his debut for Fulham in a 2–2 draw against his former club Manchester United nine days later.

After Meulensteen's sacking as Fulham manager, Tunnicliffe and Cole were deemed by Meulensteen's successor Felix Magath to be surplus to requirements at the club, despite being played in every match eligible under Meulensteen. On 25 February 2014, just 25 days after signing for Fulham, Tunnicliffe joined Wigan Athletic on loan until the end of the season as cover for the injured Ben Watson. On 10 April, it was reported that Wigan manager Uwe Rösler had attempted to terminate Tunnicliffe's loan but Fulham refused to take the player back.

On 1 September 2014, Tunnicliffe joined Blackburn Rovers on a season-long loan deal. On 1 January 2015, he was called by his parent club thus ending the loan deal.

On 21 February 2013, Barnsley signed Tunnicliffe on a 28-day loan after Scott Golbourne was ruled out for the rest of the season following knee surgery.

On 26 July 2013, Tunnicliffe joined Ipswich Town on a six-month loan. He was a regular in the Ipswich side throughout the first half of the 2013–14 season, but although manager Mick McCarthy expressed an interest in extending Tunnicliffe's loan deal, Tunnicliffe returned to Manchester United in January 2014.

Tunnicliffe made his senior Manchester United debut on 26 September 2012, when he came on as a substitute in the 2–1 League Cup win over Newcastle United; he came on in the 77th minute for Marnick Vermijl to win his father a bet that he had made 10 years earlier, with a return of £10,000.

Tunnicliffe attended Siddal Moor Sports College. On 14 October 2012, Tunnicliffe was charged for drink-driving by Greater Manchester Police, after his car collided with a van in Green Lane, Heywood.

Tunnicliffe was a "key performer" as the United under-18 side won the FA Youth Cup in 2011. His performances that season earned him the club's Jimmy Murphy Young Player of the Year award.

On 1 July 2011, Manchester United agreed for Tunnicliffe to spend a six-month loan spell at Peterborough United, alongside teammate Scott Wootton. He made his debut in the opening game of the season on 6 August in a 2–1 home win over Crystal Palace, coming on as a substitute for Lee Frecklington in the 87th minute. He then made his first start in a League Cup game against Stevenage and set up the opening goal for teammate David Ball.

Born in Heywood, Greater Manchester, Tunnicliffe was first scouted by Manchester United at the age of nine, while playing for local side Roach Dynamos. He progressed through the Manchester United academy and signed as a scholar in July 2009. He turned professional in December the same year.

Tunnicliffe made his England under-16 debut in October 2007 at the age of 14, captaining the side to a 2–2 draw against Northern Ireland in the Victory Shield. He played for the under-16s a further seven times. In August 2008 he made his first appearance for the England under-17 team against Portugal. He was part of the squad for the 2009 European Championship. He has played a total of ten times for the under-17s, scoring four goals.

Born in Heywood, Greater Manchester, he began his career with Manchester United but failed to break into the first team and joined Peterborough United, Barnsley and Ipswich Town on loan before making a permanent move to Fulham in January 2014. After loan spells with Wigan Athletic (twice) and Blackburn Rovers, Tunnicliffe left Fulham for Millwall in 2017. Two years later, he left for Luton Town. He has also played internationally for England at under-16 and under-17 levels.
