Anthony "Tony" McMahon (born 24 March 1986) is an English footballer who plays as a right back for Bradford City.
Born in Bishop Auckland, County Durham, McMahon started his playing career with Middlesbrough, with whom he spent eight seasons before his move to Sheffield United in 2012. Having had loan spells with Blackpool and Sheffield Wednesday, McMahon was capped at international youth level, playing in the 2003 Under-17 and 2005 Under-19 European Football Championships.
After signing professional terms upon turning seventeen, McMahon captained the youth team to the 2003–04 FA Youth Cup title, along with fellow academy graduates Andrew Taylor, David Wheater and Adam Johnson.
At age eighteen, he made his Premier League debut against Manchester United on 3 October 2004, playing alongside former manager Gareth Southgate and went on to make 13 appearances. Eighteen days later, he made his European debut in the UEFA Cup group stage match away win at Aigaleo. His good showing earned plaudits from the likes of Alan Hansen. This resulted the club started talks with a contract negotiation with McMahon in mid-January and signed a contract on 4 February 2005, keeping him until 2008. At the end of the 2004–05 season, McMahon was later named for the club's young player of the year. However, his progress was hampered by a series of injuries, including a serious knee injury and a broken leg sustained between March 2005 and late 2006.
