Career
Born in Wakefield, West Yorkshire, Johnson started his career in the ninth tier of English football with Nostell Miners Welfare, scoring nine goals during the 2007–08 season.[2] He impressed on trial with Stockport County and joined them on 17 October 2008, signing a contract until the end of the season[3] and made his debut as part of a 2–1 loss against Colchester United. He made an instant impact at Stockport, scoring four goals in his first four starts for the club, including the winner against Cheltenham Town at Edgeley Park.
Johnson signed for Norwich City on a two-and-a-half year contract for an undisclosed fee on 8 January 2010 and made his debut coming on as a late substitute in Norwich's 3–1 victory over Exeter City the following day.[4][5] He scored his first goal for the club a week later in the 5–0 away victory against Colchester United.[6]
