PROFILE
Kenny Dalglish secured the capture of England international winger Stewart Downing
from Aston Villa in July 2011.
Downing is a traditional wide man who is capable of playing on both the left and
right flank.
He was spotted by Middlesbrough as a schoolboy and made his first-team debut for
the club on April 24, 2002 in a Premier League match at Ipswich Town.
He went on to make 206 appearances for his hometown club and played a major part in
helping them reach the UEFA Cup final in May 2006, which Steve McClaren's side eventually
lost 4-0 to Sevilla.
Along the route to the final Downing produced fantastic displays against Lazio and
the incredible comeback against Steaua Bucharest when he had a hand in all four
Middlesbrough goals as Boro came back from 3-0 down to win 4-3 on aggregate.
His performances for Boro continued to attract interest and an international
call-up was a due reward for his consistency.
He made his England debut on March 9, 2005, during a friendly against Holland at
Villa Park when he appeared as a second-half replacement for Shaun Wright-Phillips.
Downing was strongly linked with a move to Anfield during the summer of 2008 but
Rafael Benitez instead signed Albert Riera.
He left the Riverside Stadium for a new challenge at Aston Villa during the summer
of 2009 and enjoyed a two-year spell which saw him make 75 appearances and score eight
goals.
He claimed nine Barclays Premier League assists for Villa last season, more than
any Liverpool player.
Away from the pitch Downing has been involved in several charitable and community
projects.
He supports the nationwide 'No Messin' campaign along with freestyler Colin Nell
and boxer Amir Khan, warning youngsters against playing on the railway lines.
He held a charity dinner with special guest boxer Ricky Hatton to raise funds for
the Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne in February 2008. The hospital had
cared for Vicky, Stewart's sister, who died of leukaemia in 1993 at the age of four.
