Biography

Ben Wyatt played for Norwich's victorious Under-15s in the Eendracht Aalst Tournament in May 2010. A left-back from Norwich , he made his Under-18s debut in September 2-11 whilst registered with the Under-16s. He joined Norwich at the age of 10.

In March 2012, it was announced that he would be joining the Canaries as an Academy Scholar in the summer of 2012

Wyatt played in both FA Youth Cup semi-final matches against Notts Forest which the Canaries won to progess to the FA Youth Cup final. He also played in both legs of the final which the Canaries won 1-0 and 3-2 against Chelsea to secure victory in the FA Youth Cup for the first time in 30 years. During the 2012/13 season, Ben made 26 appearances for the Under-18s

In January 2014, Wyatt spent time at a training camp with England Under-18s

On 7th April 2014, Ben played on trial for Ipswich's Under-21s.

Wyatt was released at the end of the 2013/14 season and then signed a professional contract with Ipswich

After a season with Ipswich, he was released and joined non-leaguers Maldon & Tiptree United on 28th July 2015. His form earned him a return to league football as he signed a one year development deal with Colchester on 31st March 2016. Maldon manager and Colchester academy coach Steve Ball, said: “He took a step back to come and play for Maldon and Tiptree and this is the carrot for the players we have. The stronger the project gets, the more players it will attract and there’s the incentive of earning an under-21 contract at Colchester United. People can see someone like Femi Akinwande making his debut for Colchester’s first team, having been playing for Maldon only a few months ago.”

At the end of October 2016, Wyatt joined Concord Rangers of the Conference South on loan for a month. In January 2017, this was extended until the end of the 2016/17 season. Colchester announced on 10th May 2017 that they would be releasing Wyatt.

He left Sutton at the end of June 2022 on the expiry of his contract. He had played 60 games for Sutton. On 29th July 2022 he signed for National League side Torquay. Torquay boss Gary Johnson said “The signing of Ben is a good one, he’s experienced at this level, and also experienced a promotion at this level. The beauty of Ben is he is a left-sided player, who can play left-back, left wing-back or left wing, and with us, he’s going to have to play all of them.”

Wyatt was on the bench as Torquay could only draw 1-1 with Wrexham on 29th April 2023 resulting in themrelegated to the National League South. Wyatt was then released with six of his teammates on 3rd May 2023.
