Roarie Milton Ryan Deacon (born 12 October 1991) is an English professional footballer who plays for Crawley Town.

Deacon started his career at Premier League club Arsenal in 2008, and signed professional terms ahead of the 2010–11 season. He made no first-team appearances and was subsequently released in the summer of 2011. Deacon then joined Sunderland in July that year. He left Sunderland when his contract expired in January 2013, again without making a first-team appearance. Deacon signed for League One team Stevenage on a free transfer in March 2013. He has also represented England at U19 level.

Club career

Deacon began his career as a schoolboy at Arsenal in 2008, progressing through the youth ranks and playing regularly for the club's U18 side.[3][4][5][6][7] He signed his first professional contract with the club in July 2010, agreeing an initial one-year deal.[8] During the 2010–11 season, he made 16 appearances for the reserve side, scoring four times.[9][10] He was also part of the U19 team that reached the semi-finals of the Dallas Cup, scoring three goals.[11] Despite playing regularly at reserve level, he did not make any first-team appearances, and was subsequently released by Arsenal on 17 June 2011.[9] Just two weeks after his release from Arsenal, Deacon joined fellow Premier League side Sunderland on a one-and-a-half-year contract.[12][13] Deacon made 20 appearances for Sunderland's second string during the 2011–12 season, scoring three goals, but failed to breakthrough into the first-team. He made a further eight appearances for Sunderland's U21 team during the first half of the 2012–13 campaign. In January 2013, having made no first-team appearances, Sunderland announced that he had left the club upon the expiry of his contract.[14]

In March 2013, Deacon signed for League One side Stevenage on a free transfer.[15][16] He made his debut for the club, and first professional appearance, in the club's 1–0 home victory over Hartlepool United on 1 April, coming on as an 80th-minute substitute.[17]

On 12 May 2014, Deacon signed a new contract extension at the club.[18]

On 28 July 2015, Deacon joined League Two team Crawley Town on a one-year deal.[19]

International career

Deacon has represented the England U19 team on three occasions.[20] After appearing as an unused substitute in England's 3–1 victory over Finland U19's on 9 October 2009,[21] he made his debut two days later in a 3–1 win against Slovenia, coming on as a second-half substitute and scoring England's third goal from the penalty spot.[22] Three days later, on 14 October, he started in a 2–0 win over Slovakia U19's in Lendava.[19] In March 2010, Deacon was called up to play in a friendly match against a Netherlands U19 side, earning his third cap from the substitute's bench in a 1–1 draw.[20]
