Paul McManus (born April 22, 1990, Liverpool) is a professional footballer with Chester City.
The teenager is a product of the club's youth policy and a prolific scoring record for the youth and reserve sides persuaded Bobby Williamson to hand McManus a professional contract on October 2, 2007. Highlights of his time at the club include scoring the shock winner for Chester's youngsters against Tottenham Hotspur in the FA Youth Cup in December 2006 and a hat-trick at Carlisle United in a reserve fixture in September 2007.
McManus made his Football League debut as a late substitute in a 3-1 home win over Shrewsbury Town on October 7, 2007, becoming the first player born in the 1990s to make a first-team appearance for Chester. He is one of several homegrown players to appear for the first-team this season. He made his first starting appearance in the first–team in a Johnstone's Paint Trophy tie away at Carlisle United two nights later and has remained in the first–team squad since then. In the closing weeks of the 2007–2008 season he played regularly in attack, scoring his first league goal in a 2–1 loss to Lincoln City on 12 April 2008.
