George Evans is an English professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder, centre-back or right-back for EFL League One club Burton Albion. Evans joined Manchester City at the age of six. After several seasons in Manchester City's academy, Evans first came to prominence with several appearances on the bench for City during the 2012–13 season, although he was ultimately not given a debut for the senior team. In the following season, Evans began playing for the Elite Development Squad before being loaned to Crewe Alexandra at the end of October. Within a week he was given his first senior cap, being named in the starting line-up for Crewe's home league game against Bradford City, against whom he played a full 90 minutes. Evans' first goal for Crewe Alexandra came on November 23 against local rivals Port Vale. On 30 January 2015, he joined Scunthorpe United on loan until the end of the season.
