Remie Streete (born 2 November 1994) is an English professional footballer who plays as a defender for Scottish Championship side Rangers, on loan from Premier League club Newcastle United. He is the son of Floyd Streete.

Club career

Newcastle United

Born in Aylesbury, England, Streete grew up in South Shields and played for Boldon Colts from the age of five to 13, before rejecting interest from Sunderland to join the Newcastle United academy in 2008.[2][4][5] He made his debut for the under-18s against Crewe Alexandra on 20 March 2010.[6] He was given the inaugural Jack Hixon Award in 2010.[6][7] He signed professional terms with the club in June 2011, with the three-and-a-half-year contract starting on his 17th birthday.[8]

In 2012, Streete won the Wor Jackie Award honouring the club's young player of the year.[2] He ruptured his ankle ligaments in a reserve derby in March 2012 and was ruled out for ten months following surgery.[9][10][11] In February 2014, reserve team coach Willie Donachie was forced to resign from the club after striking Streete after the teenager gave away a penalty in a defeat to Sunderland reserves.[12][13]

Loan to Port Vale

He joined League One side Port Vale on loan on 9 October 2014, with Rob Page's "Valiants" yet to keep a clean sheet in the 2014–15 season.[14] He had been linked with a move to Vale Park for a number of weeks, but the loan deal was delayed after Alan Pardew named him in Newcastle's travelling party to Crystal Palace and Stoke City.[15] He made his professional debut in the Football League at Vale Park on 25 October, coming on for Carl Dickinson at half-time, and he helped the club to record their first clean sheet of the season with a 3–0 victory over Leyton Orient.[16] His loan deal was then extended by a further two months.[17] On 12 November, Streete was recalled by Newcastle United following injuries to three of their regular centre-backs.[18]

Loan to Rangers

On 2 February 2015, Streete joined Scottish Championship club Rangers on loan until the end of the 2014–15 season, along with Newcastle teammates Gaël Bigirimana, Shane Ferguson, Kevin Mbabu and Haris Vučkić.[19] The move reportedly guaranteed him first team football, as Rangers caretaker-manager Kenny McDowall claimed the club's management instructed him to play all five Newcastle players in the first eleven.[20] Yet only Streete and Vučkić started the next game, a Scottish Cup defeat to Raith Rovers at Ibrox Stadium, which saw Streete leave the pitch with an injury before half-time.[21]

Personal life

He is the son of former Cambridge United and Wolverhampton Wanderers defender Floyd Streete.[22]
