Ryan Smith (born November 10, 1986 in Archway, London) is a football player who currently plays for Millwall, on loan from Derby County. He can play as a midfielder or forward.
Smith started his career at Arsenal; he made his Arsenal debut against Rotherham United on October 28, 2003 at the age of 16. He also managed to start against Wolverhampton Wanderers and Middlesbrough. All of the matches in which he played for Arsenal were in the Carling Cup, including a game on November 9, 2004 against Everton which saw him go off injured after 20 minutes. He is also an England youth international.
On September 30, 2005, Smith was signed by Leicester City on loan for the whole of the 2005-06 season. Although initially a first team player for Leicester, he lost his place in the side midway through the season, and after less than six months he and Leicester agreed by mutual consent that the loan should end. He returned to Arsenal on 10 March 2006.[1] On August 4, 2006, Smith agreed personal terms on a 3 year contract with Championship outfit Derby County. He made his debut in a 2-2 draw against Southampton on August 6.
On March 21, 2007, Smith moved to Millwall on an initial one-month loan deal.
