Paul Philip Mullin (born 6 November 1994) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for Morecambe.

Playing career

After spending his youth career at Everton and Liverpool,[3] Mullin moved to Spain to sign for Racing Santander in the summer of 2011. However, the move fell through due to serious financial problems at the Cantabrian club.[4] The move affected Mullin, as he was disheartened and questioned himself around his football career, quoting: "'where do I go from here?'"[4]

Despite things not working out for Mullin, Huddersfield Town's youth coach David Rowe invited him to the squad. There, Mullin was signed to Huddersfield Town in 2012[4] and often impressed at U18 and U21 level that he signed a one-year contract by the club.[5] However, at the end of the 2013–14 season, Mullin was released by the club, without ever making a first team appearance.[6]

After a successful trial period he signed for Morecambe on a short term contract in August 2014.[7][8] He made his professional debut coming on as a second-half substitute in the League Cup first round defeat to Bradford City on 12 August 2014.[9] Four days later, on his league debut, Mullin scored his first professional goal after coming on as a second-half substitute in the 3–2 win over Newport County, which he scored a winning goal.[10] One week later, on 23 August, Mullin made his full debut scoring both goals in a 2–1 win away at Cambridge United.[11] After scoring three goals in the first seven matches, Mullin signed a three-year contract with the club in mid-September.[12] Then on 31 October 2014, Mullin would end his eleven games without scoring despite losing 2–1 to Acrrington Stanley.[13]
