Ryan Stuart Clayton Inniss (born 5 June 1995) is an English footballer who plays as a centre back for Premier League club Crystal Palace.
An England under-16 and under-17 international, he turned professional at Crystal Palace in 2011. He had a number of brief loan spells at Cheltenham Town, Luton Town, Gillingham, Yeovil Town and Port Vale.
Club career
Inniss joined the Crystal Palace youth academy at the age of 14 and signed his first professional contract two years later.[4] He captained the club's youth team during the 2012–13 season.[5]
Inniss joined League Two side Cheltenham Town on 1 August 2013 on a month's loan;[6] this was later extended for a further month.[7] "Robins" manager Mark Yates said that Inniss had "been on our radar for six months now".[6] Standing in for the injured Troy Brown, Inniss made his professional debut on 27 August 2013 in Cheltenham's 2–1 League Cup defeat against West Ham United. He impressed, despite suffering a facial injury.[8] He made his first appearance in the Football League four days later against Bury.[9] On 13 September 2013, Inniss had his loan spell at Cheltenham terminated due to injury.[10] After recovering, he was an unused substitute for Crystal Palace in a 3–1 loss to Liverpool in the Premier League on 5 October 2013.[11]
On 10 January 2014, Inniss joined Conference Premier leaders Luton Town on a one-month loan, having been a "number one target" for "Hatters" manager John Still.[5][12] He scored with his first touch five minutes into his Luton debut in a 2–2 FA Trophy draw with Cambridge United.[13] He returned to Crystal Palace after playing in three matches for the club.[14]
On 14 February 2014, he joined League One side Gillingham on a loan deal lasting until the end of the season,[15] making his debut against Sheffield United in a 1–0 defeat. He picked up an injury in the game, which limited him to just two further appearances for the "Gills".[16]
On 16 October 2014, Inniss joined Yeovil Town on a one-month loan deal,[17] later extended until 20 December 2014.[18] "Glovers" manager Gary Johnson had signed him on the recommendation of Tony Pulis.[17] On 6 January 2015, Inniss returned to Crystal Palace after being recalled from his loan spell at Yeovil having made six appearances.[19]
On 12 February 2015, Inniss joined Rob Page's Port Vale on a one-month loan deal.[20] He made his debut two days later, helping the "Valiants" to keep their first clean sheet in three months with a 1–0 win over Walsall.[21] He collected five yellow cards in five starts during his stay at Vale Park, helping the team to concede just two goals whilst he was on the pitch, but his loan spell was not extended as he damaged his ankle ligaments during his final appearance.[22] Chairman Norman Smurthwaite stated that he hoped to sign Inniss in the summer.[23]
International career
Inniss has represented England at under-16 and under-17 level.[24] He scored the winning goal in England U16's 2–1 Victory Shield win over Scotland U16 in 2011.[24]
Inniss is eligible to represent Trinidad and Tobago at international level, due to his father being born there.[25]
Style of play
A vocal player, Cheltenham Town centre-back partner Steve Elliott described him as "a typical modern-day centre-half: tall, athletic and aggressive".[8]
