Mitchell Ryan Beeney (born 3 October 1995) is an English professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Chelsea.

In 2007, Beeney joined Chelsea's academy from Gillingham, along with his brother Jordan. His father is former professional Mark Beeney. After becoming a key member of Chelsea's under-18 squad, Beeney was promoted up to the under-21 squad. On 10 May 2015, he was named on the bench to face Liverpool, remaining unused in the 1–1 draw at Stamford Bridge.

On 15 January 2016, Beeney joined League Two side Newport County on a one-month loan deal. The next day, he made his professional debut in a 1–0 victory over York City at Bootham Crescent, therefore earning a clean sheet. The loan period was extended on 18 February, to 16 April. However, on 25 February 2016 Beeney was released from his loan by Newport manager Warren Feeney after his partner criticised the club on Twitter for putting him on the bench for a game against Exeter City.

On 23 June 2016, it was announced that Beeney would be joining League Two side Crawley Town until January 2017. On 20 July 2016, it was announced that Beeney would wear the number one jersey ahead of Crawley Town's 2016–17 campaign. Then later on he signed a one-year extension at Chelsea. On 30 August 2016, Beeney was given his first start in a EFL Trophy tie against Colchester United, after being used as a back-up to Yusuf Mersin. The game resulted in a 1–0 victory for the Reds, with James Collins scoring the only goal. On 10 September 2016, Beeney made his league debut in a 2–1 away defeat against Stevenage.
