Charles Patrick "Charlie" Mulgrew (born March 6, 1986 in Glasgow) is a Scottish footballer, signed to Wolverhampton Wanderers of the Championship. He is primarily a defender, playing mainly at left back, but can also operate in left midfield.
[edit] Playing career
Having progressed through Celtic's youth system, Mulgrew turned professional in July 2002. By January 2006 he had yet to make his debut for the club's first team, so in order for him to gain competitive experience he was loaned out to fellow SPL side Dundee United for the remainder of the 2005/06 season.
A successful spell at Tannadice saw him feature regularly, scoring 2 goals (both free kicks) in 14 appearances and being named SPL Young Player of the Month for February.[1] He then returned to Celtic hoping to force his way into first team contention, but was transferred to Wolverhampton Wanderers shortly thereafter without ever appearing for the Bhoys.
Mulgrew joined Wolves in part exchange for left back Lee Naylor on August 23, 2006.[2] He made his debut for the club on September 10, 2006, in a 1-0 win at Leeds United. However, injury kept him out of most of the campaign and he was unable to force his way back into first team contention afterward.
He was loaned out to League One side Southend United at the end of the January transfer window for the remainder of the 2007/08 season, which saw the club lose in the play-offs to Doncaster. He scored his first goal for thwe club against Carlisle United, although Captain Adam Barrett claims he got a touch.
Mulgrew has represented Scotland at all levels up to and including Under-21.
