Myles Arthur Eugene Wesley Weston (born 12 March 1988) is an English-born Antiguan international footballer who plays for Southend United as a left winger.
Club career
Weston was born in Lewisham, London. He joined the academy at Premier League side Arsenal at age 11, before moving to the academy at fellow Premier League side Charlton Athletic at age 12.[3] Weston signed his first professional contract in the summer of 2006.[3] After playing four games on loan for Notts County in April 2007, he was released by Charlton Athletic at the end of the 2006–07 season without ever playing for the Addicks' senior team. County signed Weston on 4 July 2007 on a two-year contract.[4] He was a prominent member of the Notts County team that season, with his electric pace and skill winning over the fans.[citation needed]
Weston scored his first goal for Notts County in a League Cup match against Doncaster Rovers.[5]
Brentford then signed Weston after he turned down a new three-year deal at Notts County. "I think he's a foolish boy. That's his choice, but he's made a mistake," Magpies chairman John Armstrong-Holmes told BBC Radio Nottingham.[6] The transfer was completed on 2 July 2009.[7] He scored two goals on his Brentford debut against Carlisle United.
On 17 August 2012 Weston signed for Gillingham on a two-year contract.[8] He scored on his debut two days later against Bradford City. He was released by the club at the end of the 2013–14 season,[9] and subsequently joined Southend United.[10]
International career
Weston is a former England under-16 and under-17 international where he was a team mate of Theo Walcott.[11][12]
In August 2011, it was announced that Weston was called up to the Antigua national team for World Cup 2014 qualifiers, but declined the invitation to concentrate on his club (then Brentford) career. Weston was called up a second time in 2012, but again declined due to having just signed for Gillingham.[13]
In November 2014 he was again called up for the team for the 2014 Caribbean Cup. He made his debut on 12 November in the opening group match against Haiti scoring the team's first goal in a 2–2 draw, and provided the assist for the team's equalising goal.
