Gregory James "Greg" Tansey (born 21 November 1988) is an English professional footballer who plays for Scottish Premiership side Inverness Caledonian Thistle as a midfielder. He has signed a pre-contract agreement to join Aberdeen in June 2017.
Tansey started his career at , progressing through the youth system before making his first-team debut in 2006. He was loaned out to Conference National side Altrincham towards the latter stages of the 2007–08 season. Tansey spent six years at Stockport, becoming a permanent fixture in the side, as well as finishing as the club's top goalscorer during the 2010–11 campaign.
He left Stockport in June 2011, joining Scottish Premier League side Inverness Caledonian Thistle on a free transfer. After one season at Inverness, Tansey joined Football League One club Stevenage in May 2012, before returning to Inverness in 2014.
Tansey progressed through the Centre of Excellence at after joining them at age thirteen, and made his first-team debut in a 1–0 away win against Macclesfield Town in the Football League Trophy in October 2006. He went on to make five appearances during the 2006–07 season, including his first league appearance, starting in a 2–1 home defeat to Milton Keynes Dons.
Ahead of the following season, Tansey, along with fellow Stockport player Ryan Crowther, were invited to travel to Milan with Liverpool's youth team to play in an arranged youth tournament. Liverpool agreed a deal with Stockport for both players, subject to satisfactory performances at the tournament. After the tournament, Liverpool wished to sign both players, although Tansey declined Liverpool's contract offer as he stated he wished to develop playing first-team football, as opposed to playing in Liverpool's youth side on a weekly basis. He was also strongly linked with a move to Charlton Athletic, but eventually signed a new two-year deal with Stockport in August 2007. He made 16 appearances for the club during the 2007–08 season, before joining Conference National side Altrincham on loan in March 2008. This deal ran until the end of the season. He made his Altrincham debut in a 1–1 draw against promoting-chasing Torquay United a day after joining the club, and went on to make five appearances before returning to Stockport.
