Charles Patrick "Charlie" Mulgrew (born 6 March 1986) is a Scottish international footballer who plays as a central midfielder, centre back or left back for Blackburn Rovers.
Mulgrew grew up in Kirkintilloch and attended Holy Family Trinity Primary School, as well as St Ninian's High School (both Kirkintilloch).
Having progressed through Celtic's youth system, Mulgrew turned professional in July 2002. Originally playing at centre back, he was soon encouraged to switch to left back due to the shortage of left backs at the club.°
In order for him to gain competitive experience, in January 2006 Mulgrew was loaned out to fellow SPL side Dundee United for the remainder of the 2005–06 season. A successful spell at Tannadice saw him feature regularly, scoring twice (both free kicks) in 14 appearances and being named SPL Young Player of the Month for February. He then returned to Celtic hoping to force his way into first team contention, but was transferred to Wolverhampton Wanderers shortly thereafter without ever appearing for the Celtic first team.
Mulgrew joined Wolves in part exchange for left back Lee Naylor on 23 August 2006. He made his debut for the club on 10 September in a 1–0 win at Leeds United. However, injury kept him out of most of the campaign and he was unable to force his way back into first team contention afterwards.
