Contents

[edit] Career

He was signed from Stockport County in the summer of 2005, with Chelsea beating many clubs to his signature, a tribunal set an initial transfer fee of £150,000 with further payments depending upon progress. He turned professional in November 2005 and in his first season made the most appearances at youth level.

He joined Doncaster Rovers on loan in March 2007, making his debut in a vital 1-0 win at Nottingham Forest. He said at the time "I've come here to gain some experience and be part of a first team set up, I don't know what the future holds, although I still have another year on my contract at Chelsea."[1]

He joined Carlisle United on a month long loan in August 2007.[2] He made his debut for the Cumbrians in a 1-0 victory against Cheltenham Town. However, this would be the only game he would play for Carlisle.

[edit] Move to Leicester City

Worley was given a trial by Leicester City on 6th February 2008. Manager Ian Holloway said he was impressed with him after seeing him play in a reserve match.[3] He then joined them on loan until the end of the season before signing a 3 year contract the following summer.[4] Worley made his debut in a 3-0 loss to Sheffield United on 5th April 2008 as a 74th minute substitute[5], with his first start coming in the 0-0 draw with Stoke City.

His permanent move to Leicester became official on 2008-05-07.[6]
