Shaun Matthew Hutchinson (born 23 November 1990) is an English footballer who currently plays for Millwall as a
centre-back. Shaun has also played for Fulham and Motherwell.
Educated at Gosforth Academy, Hutchinson signed for Motherwell from Wallsend Boys Club in 2007. He later explained joining Motherwell, quoting: "Motherwell gave me the first offer after I left school and I was always going to take it." While growing up, Hutchinson revealed he and his family were Newcastle United supporters and was a season ticket holders. Following his move to Motherwell, his family switched their allegiance from Newcastle United to Motherwell.
He made his professional debut for Motherwell on 16 May 2009 in a league match away to Hamilton Academical. He started in the 3–0 win. After making his debut, Hutchinson signed a new contract, that will keep for two-years.
Hutchinson played in the 2009–10 Europa League second leg match against Flamurtari on 23 July 2009 and scored the sixth goal in an 8–1 win for the Steelmen. Hutchinson made an impressive start of the season when he scored two goals in the first two matches against St Johnstone and Kilmarnock. As a result of his good performance, Hutchinson soon attracted interests from other clubs, but Manager Jim Gannon was determined for the youngsters to stay at the club. Despite the transfer speculation, Hutchinson signed a three-year contract with the club that will keep him until 2012. Hutchinson third goal came in a 6–1 loss against Rangers on 19 December 2009, which turns out to be last his appearance of the season. However, during the season, Manager Gannon left the club and was replaced by Craig Brown. For Hutchinson, he suffered a huge setback in the first team that he only made five appearance in his first season for Motherwell. Hutchinson stated he want to get his career on track because of "the sake of his sanity."
