Scott James Wootton (born 12 September 1991) is an English footballer who plays as a defender for Tranmere Rovers on loan from Manchester United.

Career

Having started his career in Tranmere Rovers Centre of Excellence, at the age of 13 he moved to Liverpool. He played for the Liverpool Under 18 side at the age of 14, but frustrated at the number of young overseas players bought in by Rafael Benítez, he turned down a scholarship at the age of 16, deciding instead to switch to Manchester United in 2007. After captaining the United Academy team in 2009/10, he was promoted to the reserves side for the 2010/11 season, where he became an regular player in the early part of the season.

On 30 September 2010 he joined Tranmere Rovers on a month's loan.[2]

He made his debut on 2 October 2010, and claimed scoring a late equalising goal in the 1-1 draw with Brighton.[3]. He went on to make 5 appearances for the club while on his loan spell. He re-joined the club on 25 November on a second loan spell.[4]

International career

Wootton appeared for the England Under 17 team in the 2007 Nordic Championships[5][6]
