Seamus Coleman is an Irish professional footballer who plays as a right back for Premier League club Everton and the Republic of Ireland national team.

Originally a Gaelic footballer, Coleman started his association football career with Sligo Rovers before moving to English club Everton in 2009. In 2010 he spent half a season on loan with Blackpool, helping them win promotion via the 2010 Championship play-off, before returning to Everton. He scored his first goal for Everton against Brentford in the Football League Cup third round on 21 September 2010. The 2013–14 season proved to be Coleman's best to date as he scored six league goals, more than his previous seasons at the club combined. In April, he was named in the PFA Team of the Year. He was also named Everton's player of the year and players' player of the year. Manager Roberto Martínez hailed Coleman as one of the best full-backs in world football as he was part of a defence which conceded just 39 goals to help Everton finish fifth with a club record of 72 Premier League points. He created 45 chances during the season, the third highest amongst Everton players and had the second highest pass completion at 88%. On 26 June 2014, Coleman signed a new five-and-a-half-year contract with Everton. He scored his first ever goal in European football for Everton on 18 September 2014, netting their second in a 4-1 win over Wolfsburg in the first match of their Europa League campaign. On 19 February 2015, he was again on target in Europe, in a 4-1 win over BSC Young Boys in the last 32.

Coleman received his first call-up to the senior squad in October 2010, and made his full international debut in the Republic of Ireland's inaugural Nations Cup match against Wales on 8 February 2011, which Ireland won 3-0. On 29 May 2013, Coleman was named Man of the Match for his performance against England at Wembley Stadium. He crossed the ball for Shane Long's opening goal of the game, a header past Joe Hart. Coleman captained Ireland for the first time in a 2014 World Cup qualifier against Germany. Ireland lost 3-0.
