Liam Cannell

Liam Cannell (born 18 November 1988) is an Australian football (soccer) player who plays for the Melbourne Knights in the Victorian Premier League. Liam's father Stuart Cannell played for Melbourne Croatia in the late 1980s so it was only natural for his son Liam to start at the club he finished with. Liam began his career in the youth system of Melbourne Knights when they won the Victorian Premier League Under21's competition in 2007. Liam Cannell was loaned out to the Knights' sister club St. Albans Saints in 2007 in the league below the VPL, the State League Division 1. In 2009 Cannell returned to the Knights and was given more game time after Knights coach Chris Taylor showed his belief in the young utility.
