Henry Cartwright, an English born midfielder hailing from the Trevor Brooking school of pleasant football, celebrates his birthday on the 11th of December and, being born in the year of 2004, he is presently enjoying the bloom of his youth at 20 years. Falkirk, stationed in Scotland's Premiership, is his current posting where he masterfully centres the midfield, bedecked in his lucky number 17 jersey.
Cartwright's stature, owing to his rather average height of 5 feet 8 inches (1.75m for those who care for the metric system), coupled with his reasonable weight of 10 stones and 7 pounds (a nippy 67 kg in metric), might not immediately impose a presence, but not once he sets foot on the turf in his exquisitely honed midfield position.
The ticking clock applauds his commendable contributions to Falkirk, a tenure that currently has a looming deadline. His contractual terms with Falkirk will come to a halt on the 30th day of June, in the grand year of our lord 2026, a mere 9 months from now.
The grass wasn't always this exact shade of green for Cartwright. Back in July 2020, upon the completion of his formal education, he was taken under the wings of Leicester City, the noteworthy Championship side in England. He joined as a promising trainee, eager to shape his raw skills into a polished performance.
Rewinding to the more recent past, the year 2025 marked a major turning point in Cartwright's career. The month was July when he temporarily swapped the Championship ground of Leicester City for the Premiership grass of Falkirk, a move that flung him to Scotland on a limited loan tenure. And during his sojourn at Falkirk, he was part of the League Cup 2025 - 2026 squad. Despite only managing to secure a starting line-up position twice, he clocked up a respectable three additional appearances off the bench.
