Soccer player biography
Campbell Fraser was born on September 13 in 1987 in the city of Huddersfield in England. Since childhood, he began to get involved in football, is a graduate of the Manchester United Academy (he played for the youth squad from 2004 to 2006).
In 2006, he moved to the Belgian Antwerp on loan. Here he played 31 matches of the season and was marked by 20 goals scored. The following year, the leadership of the “Red Devils” decided again to give the young striker a lease. This time, Campbell Fraser moved to Hull City, where he spent an equally successful season - 34 games and 15 goals scored.
In 2008, the leadership of Tottenham Hotspur expressed a desire to pick up a player for rent in their club. In turn, Campbell was only delighted, because now he had a high task - to show himself in one of the most famous clubs in England. However, in the “spurs” the young striker showed absolutely nothing - 10 matches and 1 goal.
Going to Sunderland
On July 11, 2009, footballer Campbell Fraser signed an agreement with Sunderland for £ 3.5 million (with a potential of up to 6 million). He scored his debut goal in a duel against the Birmingham City club in the League Cup (2-0). In subsequent matches, Campbell often left in the starting lineup and scored goals. This continued until August 2010, when Fraser was not seriously injured in the match with West Brom. The footballer dropped out of the game for six whole months due to a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligaments. After recovery, the player for a long time could not enter the previous regime of English football. Thus, in the period from 2009 to 2013, he played 58 matches and scored 6 goals.
Cardiff City and Crystal Palace
In 2013, Fraser entered into an agreement with Cardiff City for a period of 3.5 years. Here the football player seemed to be born again - 49 matches and 13 goals scored in a season. Thanks to the chic game, Campbell warmed up his attention from Crystal Palace, who made a transfer offer. During the long negotiations, the parties reached a consensus, and Campbell joined the "glaziers" for 900 thousand pounds for 3 years. From 2014 to 2017, Fraser played in 43 matches and scored 5 goals.
In July 2017, it became officially known about the transfer of striker Campbell Fraser to Hull City as a free agent. Recall that in 2017 Leonid Slutsky joined the post of head coach at Hull City.
