Myles Roberts (born 12 December 2001) is an English footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Watford.

Career

Early career

During his early life, Roberts played as a striker for his local Sunday League team, before transitioning to the goalkeeper position.

Roberts began his professional career at Reading, coming through the club's youth sides. During his time with the club Roberts had short-term loan spells with Wealdstone and Tonbridge Angels.

Watford

After leaving Reading, Roberts signed with Watford in January 2020. Roberts has had multiple loan spells away from Watford, including full seasons with National League South clubs Concord Rangers and Welling United. During his time with Welling, Roberts was recalled by Watford in order to train with the club’s first team squad. Despite the recall, Roberts still won the Welling United manager’s player of the year award.

Partick Thistle (loan)

In July 2024 Roberts joined Scottish Championship club Partick Thistle on a season-long loan.

Roberts made his Partick Thistle debut in the opening league game of the 2024–25 season, keeping a clean sheet and earning the man of the match award in a 0–0 home draw with Greenock Morton. Roberts won Partick Thistle player of the month in his first month with the club, as voted for by Thistle supporters. Roberts once again won Partick Thistle player of the month in October 2024.

Following an impressive first half of the season with Thistle Roberts was recalled by Watford in January 2025.
