John "Johnny" Hunt (born 23 August 1990) is an English professional footballer who plays for Chester. Mainly a left back, he can also play as a midfielder.

Club career

Born in Liverpool, Hunt was a Wrexham youth graduate. He made his first team debut on 20 April 2010, starting and being booked in a 0–1 away loss against Oxford United for the Conference National championship.[2]

Hunt only became a first team regular for the side in the 2012–13 campaign, appearing in 42 matches. He scored his first goal on 18 August 2012, netting the first in a 1–1 away draw against Ebbsfleet United.[3]

On 11 June 2014, after scoring 11 league goals for the Robins, Hunt turned down a new deal[4] and signed a two-year contract with Cambridge United.[5] On 1 September, however, he returned to Wrexham, on loan until January.[6]

Hunt returned to the U's in January 2015, and made his Football League debut on 31 January, coming on as a second half substitute for Sullay Kaikai in a 2–3 away loss against Luton Town; he also scored his side's first goal.[7] He found a breakthrough to regular first team football difficult and his contract was terminated by mutual consent in June 2015.[8]
