At 6' 4" David has all the natural attributes to be a dominant central defender and shows excellent pace and ability on the ball.
At the age of 16, David represented Wales at both under-17 and under-19 levels.He featured in all four of City's FA Youth Cup games last season and also played a major role in helping the youth team to the runners-up spot in Group A of the Under-18s Premier League. In June 2009 he was rewarded with his first professional contract after just one year of his two-year Academy scholarship.
