Myles Arthur Eugene Wesley Weston^[1] (born 12 March 1988) is an English footballer who plays as a left winger for Brentford. He is also a capable striker.

Club career

Weston was born in Lewisham, London. After playing four games on loan for Notts County in April 2007, he was released by Charlton Athletic at the end of the 2006–07 season without ever playing for the Addicks senior team. County signed Weston on 4 July 2007 on a two year contract.^[2] He was a prominent member of the Notts County team that season, with his electric pace and skill winning over the fans.^{[citation needed]}

Weston scored his first goal for Notts County in a League Cup match against Doncaster Rovers.^[3]

Brentford then signed Weston after he turned down a new three-year deal at Notts County. "I think he's a foolish boy. That's his choice, but he's made a mistake," Magpies chairman John Armstrong-Holmes told BBC Radio Nottingham.^[4] The transfer was completed on 2 July 2009.^[5] Myles Weston scored two goals on his Brentford debut against Carlisle United.

International career

Myles is a former England under-16 and under-17 international where he was a team mate of Theo Walcott.^[6][7]

In August 2011, it was announced that Weston was called up to the Antigua national team for World Cup 2014 qualifiers.
