Michael Walsh (born 30 May 1986, Liverpool) is an English footballer.

Walsh joined Chester from Rhyl in 2004, making his first-team debut the following January as a substitute in an FA Cup tie at AFC Bournemouth in the left back slot. Walsh joined fellow youngsters Robbie Booth, Gavin Lynch and Shaun Whalley in being given first-team opportunities under Ian Rush. His Football League debut followed, again as a substitute at Cambridge United a week later, with his first goal arriving in a 2–2 draw against Southend United on 5 March 2005.

Despite his involvement in the first-team squad, Walsh and the majority of his teammates were released at the end of the season.[1] He spent time on trial with Wrexham and briefly returned to Rhyl before joining Bangor City in September 2005.[2]

He followed this with a two-year spell with Marfin Laiki League side APOP Kinyras Peyias. In 2011, he returned to Wales, rejoining Bangor City before moving to Aberystwyth Town in January 2012.[3]

As a youngster, Walsh captained the North Wales under 18s side.[4]
