Steven Thomas Schumacher (born April 30, 1984 in Liverpool, England) is an English footballer who currently plays for Crewe Alexandra. His position is central midfielder.
Schumacher began his career at Everton and was captain of the England Under 19s while he was playing in the club's youth team. He was unable to break into the first team, however, and after a couple of minor loan spells with Carlisle United and Oldham Athletic, signed for Bradford City in 2004.
Schumacher has accrued a reputation as a fiercely competitive midfielder, equally adept in a holding or attacking role. His best season so far was the 2004-05 season, making over 40 first team starts, and scoring freely from his role in the Bantams midfield.
Schumacher's Bradford contract expired and he left the club on May 18, 2007[1] as he was not thought to be in new Bradford City manager Stuart McCall's plans, speculation indicated that he could have been offered a new contract by the club[2] in a change of heart by McCall and owner Julian Rhodes. However, he soon signed for Crewe Alexandra
