Connor James Dimaio (born 28 January 1996) is a professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Northern Premier League Division One East club Bradford (Park Avenue). Born in England, he has represented the Republic of Ireland at under-21 level.
A product of United's Academy, Dimaio made his first team début in March 2014 in an away game at Crawley Town. [4] Dimaio made two further appearances for the Blades before the end of the season, which was enough to see him awarded the club's annual 'Young Player of the Year' award. [5]
Dimaio signed for League One side Chesterfield on 1 February 2016, on a contract until the end of the season, having been released by Sheffield United on the same day as he signed for Chesterfield. He scored his first goal for Chesterfield in a 3–1 win against Crewe Alexandra on 20 February 2016. [6]
In May 2018, Dimaio signed a two-year deal with Stockport County. [7] In February 2019 he joined Ashton United on loan until the end of the season. [8]
After leaving Stockport, Diamio joined National League North side Boston United in August 2020. [9] On 25 February 2022, he signed for National League side Curzon Ashton, returning to the club until the end of the season. [10]
In July 2022, he signed permanently for National League North side Curzon Ashton. [11]
On 9 February 2023, Dimaio signed for Northern Premier League Premier Division club Matlock Town. [12] On 4 March 2023, he went down injured during a 1–1 draw with Ashton United, a scan revealing that he had suffered a damaged cruciate ligament that would keep him out of action for between ten and twelve months. [13] A crowdfunding campaign was set up to pay for career-saving surgery, receiving a £1000 donation from former Sheffield United youth teammate and Premier League goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale. [14] On 5 January 2024 Dimaio was loaned to United Counties League First Division Rainworth Miners Welfare for a month as part of his injury rehabilitation. [15]
In May 2024, Dimaio joined Northern Premier League Division One East club Bradford (Park Avenue) following their relegation. [16]
Having represented Republic of Ireland at under-16 and under-17 level, Dimaio was called up to the Republic of Ireland under-19 side in August 2013. [17] He made his debut in a friendly fixture against Norway later that month. [18] In mid May 2014, Dimaio started in two friendly defeats for Ireland Under-19s, both against Mexico Under-20s. [19] [20]
Dimaio was called up for the under-21 team in March 2016 and made his debut in a European qualifier against Slovenia.
