Ryan Matthew Haynes (born 27 September 1995) is an English football player who currently plays as a Left wing-back for League One team Coventry City.

Career

Raised in Daventry, Northamptonshire, Haynes was spotted by Coventry City at a youth tournament in Rugby, Warwickshire. With senior left-backs at the club unavailable through injury and suspension, Haynes made his professional debut on 6 April 2013 in a 1–1 League One playing the whole game of a draw with Brentford.[2] Haynes marked his debut by vomiting on the pitch due to nerves. During the 2013/14 season he made two further appearances for Coventry City, starting in a 1–1 drew with Shrewsbury Town and as a late substitute in a 2–2 draw with Crawley Town.

After spending a season with Coventry City's under-21 side, Ryan Haynes became regarded as one of the brightest prospects at the club and had been scouted by several Premier League sides. An injury to Danny Pugh during a League Cup tie against Cardiff City in August 2014 allowed Haynes his chance to break into the first-team. Despite scoring an own-goal in the second-half of the Cardiff City fixture, Haynes recovered well and assisted Shaun Miller for Coventry City's only goal in a 2–1 defeat.

Since then Ryan Haynes has been a regular in the Coventry City first-team. The youngster produced an assist for Jim O'Brien in a 1–0 win over Sheffield United at Sixfields. He later won man of the match against Gillingham in Coventry City's return match at the Ricoh Arena, he broke free down the left-wing and cut the ball back for Frank Nouble in the 10th minute for the game's only goal.
