Kyel Romaine Reid (born 26 November 1987) is an English football midfielder who currently plays on loan for Charlton Athletic on loan from Sheffield United.

Playing career

Club career

West Ham

Born in South London, Reid joined West Ham United in July 2004 and is a product of the West Ham United academy system.[1] He made his full debut for the club in a 1-0 away win over West Bromwich Albion in May 2006 and made a second appearance against Tottenham Hotspur later in the same month.[2]

He joined Barnsley in November 2006 on an initial one-month loan, which was extended to the end of the season,[3] and made 26 appearances, scoring two goals.[2] He returned to West Ham for the start of the 2007–08 season, making four league and cup appearances,[2] before joining Crystal Palace on loan in March 2008.[4]

Reid scored his first and only goal for West Ham United in a 4-1 win against Macclesfield Town during a League Cup second round match on 27 August 2008.

On 27 November 2008, Reid signed on loan with Blackpool,[5] and made his debut two days later in the Seasiders' 2-1 victory over Plymouth Argyle at Home Park.[6] Following Blackpool's 0-0 draw at Nottingham Forest on 13 December, two days later he was named by the Football League in the Championship "Team Of The Week".[7][8] At the end of his loan spell, on 30 December, Reid returned to West Ham.

On 15 January 2009, Reid joined Championship side Wolverhampton Wanderers on loan for the remainder of the season [9], making his debut on 24 January 2009, in a FA Cup 4th Round tie against Middlesbrough.[10] Reid's first - indeed, only - goal for Wolves came in a 1-1 draw at Barnsley on 25 April 2009; a goal which secured the the 2008-09 championship title for Wolves.[11]

Reid did not make the bench for the May fixtures and returned to West Ham after the end of the season. However he found himself behind Junior Stanislas, Jack Collison and the then-injured Valon Behrami in the pecking order for the wide midfield positions.

Sheffield United

Reid was not offered a new contract after failing to break into the first team on a regular basis.[12] He completed a free transfer to Sheffield United in July 2009[13][14] but found it difficult to break into the first team, making only a handful of substitute appearences during his first six months at Bramall Lane.

In January 2010 Reid was loaned out to League One side Charlton Athletic for the remainder of the season.[15]

International career

Reid has played for the England under-17, under-18 and under-19 teams.[16][17][18]


In November 2008, Reid's 21st birthday celebrations at the Ghost Bar nightclub in South Kensington resulted in a large gang fight in which two people were injured, one being hit by a car and the other stabbed in the neck.[19]
