Youth career
O'Hanlon was spotted playing for Randlay Colts Junior Football Club and joined Wolves as an Under-10 in 2006. He was the only Wolves player to start every competitive U21 match in the 2014-15 season, and would probably have played every minute had he not been subbed off injured in a match against Stoke in May.
During the 2015-16 pre-season, Ben played half a game in a Crawley friendly against Burgess Hill, hoping to secure a loan.
International
He was in the England squad for the Victory Shield match against Northern Ireland in 2011, and made two appearances for the U16s, nine for the U17s and two for the U18s.
