Leon Mike (born 4 September 1981 in Manchester) is an English former footballer who played as a striker.
Career
Mike began his career with Manchester City. As a youngster he played for England Schoolboys against Germany in 1997.[2]
His first senior experience came in loan spells at Oxford United and Halifax Town in the 2000–01 season. In the 2001–02 season he was part of a group of young players selected to train as part of the senior Manchester City squad.[3] Following a hat-trick for the reserve team in November 2001, he was included in the squad for a match against Portsmouth,[4] and made his debut as a substitute following an injury to Shaun Goater.[5] In the following match, against Rotherham United, Mike made his first and only start for Manchester City.[6]
Mike's performances for the Manchester City reserve team attracted the attention of scouts from Aberdeen, who had attended with the original intention of watching Scotland international Paul Dickov.[7] Mike moved to Aberdeen in February 2002,[8] but was released from the Dons fifteen months later.[9] and ended up with Mossley, where he scored 37 goals in 71 games.[10] Mike joined FC United in December 2005,[11] before leaving a year later and leaving football altogether.
Personal life
He began a law degree in September 2007 at a Liverpool college.[11] His cousin is Adie Mike.[10]
