Tyrone Benjamin Barnett is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for AFC Wimbledon.
A former West Bromwich Albion trainee, he played non-league football until joining Macclesfield Town in 2010. After a season there he transferred to Crawley Town, where he played for half a campaign before a loan move to Peterborough United which was then made permanent for £1.1 million. Barnett was loaned out several times before joining Shrewsbury Town for around £100,000 in February 2015.
Barnett began his career as a youth player with West Bromwich Albion but was eventually released by the club after not being offered a professional contract. He instead moved to Rushall Olympic, making his league debut at the age of 19 in a 3–1 defeat to Clevedon Town. His form at the start of the 2006–07 season, scoring 9 goals in 16 appearances in all competitions, led A.F.C. Telford United to sign Barnett in October 2006 in exchange for Dean Perrow joining Rushall on a one-month loan deal. However, he fell out of favour at the club and left to join Willenhall Town at the end of the season.
He spent one season with Willenhall, finishing as the club's top scorer with 22 goals, before joining Hednesford Town. He scored 28 goals in all competitions during his first season, helping the club win the Birmingham Senior Cup for the first time in 73 years with a 2–0 win over Stourbridge.
In May 2010, he moved to Football League Two side Macclesfield Town, joining former Hednesford team mate Ross Draper at the club. He made a goalscoring debut on the opening day of the 2010–11 season in a 2–2 draw with Stevenage. He initially signed a one-year deal but was quickly offered a further year after a successful start to his League career. By 23 April 2011 Barnett had scored 13 League goals, to become the equal fifth highest scorer in a Football League season for Macclesfield Town. Barnett was voted by Macclesfield Town supporters their Player of the Year for 2010–11.
