Sam Hutchinson height - How tall is Sam Hutchinson?

Born in Windsor, Berkshire, Hutchinson is the son of Eddie Hutchinson, who had played for Chelsea's youth team before a career in non-League football. As of January 2019 Hutchinson has three children with his wife, Jennifer, and as of August 2014 they were living in Whirlow.

Hutchinson broke through as a defender. His manager at Forest, Sean O'Driscoll, remarked that Hutchinson "can play right-back or right centre-half", adding "he's a bit John Terry-esque". However, during his time at Sheffield Wednesday, he evolved into "an old-fashioned midfielder who marauds into tackles"; Hutchinson believes that since the recovery from his knee injury, he has become "even more full-blooded". After his trio of Player of the Month accolades in 2016–17, the Guardian referred to him as "probably Wednesday's best player [...] and one of the best midfielders in the Championship".

On 14 February 2014, Hutchinson joined Championship side Sheffield Wednesday on a 28-day loan. On 14 March 2014, Hutchinson extended his loan with the Owls until 9 April 2014.

On 23 May 2014, Chelsea released Hutchinson and made him available for free transfer.

Hutchinson signed a permanent two-year contract with Sheffield Wednesday, on 8 July 2014. In the 2016–17 season, Hutchinson picked up three Player of the Month awards, before signing a new two-and-a-half-year contract in January 2017.

On 2 September 2013, Hutchinson joined Dutch club Vitesse Arnhem on a season-long loan. On 31 October he made his debut for the club in a league cup game against VV Noordwijk which Vitesse won 5–0. Hutchinson made his league debut on 2 November in a 1–0 win over Ajax coming on as a late substitute. On 2 January 2014 it was announced that he was recalled from his loan spell.

On 16 August 2012, Hutchinson signed on loan for Championship side Nottingham Forest. He made his debut on 21 August, in a 1–1 draw away to Huddersfield Town. He scored on his home debut in a 2–1 win against Charlton Athletic on 1 September 2012. Following another knee injury, Hutchinson went back to Chelsea in September for an injection that was intended to clear up the problem by the October international break; the treatment did not work and he was still out through mid-December, missing fifteen games. After a long break, Hutchinson returned to training with Forest at the beginning of the March 2013.

In December 2011 he signed a new one-and-a-half-year contract with Chelsea following a "significant improvement" in the knee problem that had forced him to retire. He made his return as a substitute on 29 April in a 6–1 win over QPR. In August 2012, Hutchinson joined Nottingham Forest on a season-long loan deal.

Hutchinson played for England at under-18 and under-19 youth international level; he missed the 2008 UEFA European Under-19 Football Championship tournament through injury, and would have been the country's captain. Hutchinson was called up to the England under-21 squad on 1 October 2009 for the European Championship qualifier against Macedonia, but withdrew injured.

Hutchinson joined the Chelsea Academy at the age of nine, and made his senior debut in May 2007, at the age of 18. Hutchinson signed a new four-year contract in August 2007. Later that month, Plymouth Argyle manager Ian Holloway announced his interest in signing Hutchinson on loan. Hutchinson retired from professional football at the age of 21 in August 2010, due to a recurring knee injury. It was announced that Hutchinson would work with Chelsea's academy while also studying at university.
