Raheem Shaquille Rushan Hanley (born 24 March 1994) is an English professional footballer who plays as a left-back for League One side Northampton Town.

Hanley is an attacking left-back.[2][3] He is also able to play in central midfield.[4]

Club Career

Blackburn Rovers/Swansea City

Hanley joined Blackburn Rovers from Manchester United following a successful trial in 2010.[5] He initially struggled with injuries, before he played regular under-21 football in the centre of midfield during the 2011–12 season as the Academy reached the final of the FA Youth Cup and the Academy League National Final.[5] At the end of the 2012-13 season, he was offered a new contract by the club, without making a single first team appearance.[6]

He joined Swansea City in January 2014.[4] He signed a new one-year contract with the "Swans" in April 2015.[7] At the end of the 2015-16 season, Hanley was released by the club, without making a single first team appearance.

Northampton Town

He signed a two-year contract with Northampton Town in June 2016.[8] Hanley said that manager Rob Page convinced him that Northampton was the best place for him to advance his career, and promised to challenge David Buchanan for a first-team place.[2]

Hanley made his senior debut for the "Cobblers" after coming on as a 57th minute substitute for JJ Hooper in a 3–0 defeat to Wycombe Wanderers on 30 August 2016, in an EFL Trophy group stage match at Sixfields Stadium.[9] However, Hanley spent the most of the season on the sideline, making 5 appearances in all competitions, as he was surplus to requirements at Northampton Town in his first season.[10] At the end of the 2016-17 season, he was among four players to be placed on a transfer list.[11]

Ahead of the 2017-18 season, Hanley went on a trial with Oxford United and featured in a trial match.[12] Although the move never happened, Hanley remained at the club and continued to remain surplus to requirements, though he appeared in the first team on four occasions.[13] On 10 March 2018, Hanley was loaned out to Halifax Town for the rest of the season.[14] He made his FC Halifax Town debut on 10 March 2018, in a 3-1 win over Woking.[15] He went on to make 7 appearances for FC Halifax Town.

He was released by Northampton at the end of the 2017–18 season, following their relegation.[16]

International Career

Hanley previously represented England U19, being called up for the first time in October 2012.[17] He went on to earn 3 caps.[18]
