About Dan Scarr

Born 1994. Dan Scarr is a British association football player.

Birmingham City He promptly went on trial with West Bromwich Albion, and was watched by other clubs including Middlesbrough, Port Vale and Portsmouth, but it was Birmingham Citythe club he supportswho signed him on a two-and-a-half-year contract for an undisclosed fee. Soon after joining the club, he tore a hip flexor and was out of action for the rest of the season.

Scarr joined Wycombe Wanderers on 31 August 2017, on loan until 1 January 2018. After two matches as an unused substitute, Scarr made his Football League debut on 12 September, in the starting eleven for the League Two fixture away to Mansfield Town; he played the whole match, which ended goalless. In a 3–3 draw with Carlisle United in October, Scarr conceded a penalty for what the referee saw as a foul on Shaun Miller; Miller was subsequently charged by the Football Association and became the first player retrospectively suspended for "successful deception of a match official" via a "clear act of simulation". In mid-December, by which time he had made ten league appearances, his loan was extended to the end of the season. He established himself in Wycombe's starting eleven in the second half of the campaign, but an injury sustained playing against Cambridge United in March put an end to his season. The team went on to achieve automatic promotion.

He made his debut for Birmingham City in the starting eleven for the visit to Reading in the EFL Cup first round on 14 August 2018; Birmingham lost 2–0.

Plymouth Argyle At the end of the 2020–21 season, Scarr turned down Walsall's offer of new terms in favour of joining Plymouth Argyle of League One when his Walsall contract expired. He made his debut on the opening day of the season, playing the whole of a 2–0 defeat away to Rotherham United. After Plymouth won League One in the 2022–23 season, Dan Scarr gained attention on social media for catching a flare thrown towards him during an open top bus parade through the city.

Following Plymouth's promotion to the EFL Championship, Scarr signed a new two-year contract.

Wrexham Scarr joined League One club Wrexham on 2 August 2024 on a three-year contract; the fee was undisclosed.
