Mark King (born 6 June 1988 in England) is an English professional footballer who currently plays as a defender for Accrington Stanley.

[edit] Career

He started his career at Blackburn Rovers after coming through the youth system and then into the reserves. However, he failed to make an appearance for the first team side at Ewood Park mainly because he sustained two serious knee injuries.

He was signed by Football League Two side Accrington Stanley on January 11, 2008 on a free transfer. He first caught the eye of John Coleman when he featured for Blackburn Rovers in a training match against Accrington in a training match in December 2007. King can play at left-back or centre-back. He made his league debut in the 2-0 loss to Stockport County.
