Description

Wayne Robert Hennessey is a Welsh former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper.

Hennessey's first professional games saw him set a new Football League record for consecutive clean sheets while on loan at Stockport County. He played 166 times for Wolverhampton Wanderers over eight seasons, including three years at Premier League level. After several injury setbacks, he moved to join Crystal Palace in 2014.

A full international since 2007, Hennessey is Wales' third most-capped player and the most capped Welsh goalkeeper. He was in the Wales squads for UEFA Euro 2016, UEFA Euro 2020, reaching the semi-finals and played a fundamental role during the last European qualifying play-off for World Cup 2022 v Ukraine (1-0), pulling off a string of fine saves which helped Wales reach their first World Cup since 1958.
