Ben Foster Biography
Born on April 3, 1983, in Royal Leamington Spa, United Kingdom, he started his professional career in 2001 with Stoke City, having joined from Racing Club Warwick.
However, he never made an appearance for Stoke and spent time on loan with Bristol City, Tiverton Town, Stafford Rangers, Kidderminster Harriers, and Wrexham.
In July 2005, he moved permanently to Manchester United but hardly made it into the first team, and spent two successive seasons on loan to Watford from August 2005 until the end of the 2006–07 season.
Having played just 23 times for Manchester United, Foster switched to Birmingham City in May 2010.
At Birmingham, he had ample playing time and was also part of the Birmingham team that won the 2011 League Cup making a total of 43 appearances in that season.
When Birmingham was relegated to the Championship at the end of the season, Foster was loaned to West Bromwich Albion and moved there permanently in June 2012, and returned to Watford in July 2018.
He announced his retirement from football in September 2022, after becoming a free agent that summer and turning down an opportunity to sign for Newcastle United.
Internationally, Foster made his international debut for England in February 2007 against Spain. Although he announced his retirement from international football in May 2011, he returned in February 2013 and was selected in England’s squad for the 2014 FIFA World Cup.
In March 2023, Ben Foster hit the headlines after it was reported he had come out from retirement to sign for Wrexham Association Football Club to help the club gain promotion to League Two.
His move comes just a month after Tottenham failed to bring him to north London as cover for injured goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.
The former Premier League star, who played for Manchester United, Birmingham, West Brom, and Watford, will return to the Welsh side for the first time in 18 years, having previously played there on loan in 2005.
