Anthony Breslin

Anthony Breslin is a defender currently playing for the Wolverhampton Wanderers Under-21 team.

Youth career

Breslin's father was a coach for a local team in Dublin and the youngster trained with them. He was kicking a ball from the moment he could walk. He played for a team called St Kevin's and was spotted by Wolves when he played in a Dublin district team in the Kennedy Cup. He began playing for Wolves at U16 level, travelling backwards and forwards across the Irish Sea. Then he was offered a scholarship and moved across full time. He was also a keen Gaelic footballer but had to give that up on joining Wolves.
