Isaiah Osbourne (born 15 November 1987 in Birmingham, England) is a professional footballer who currently plays in midfield for Aston Villa, and is a former England Under-16 international.
He attended Kingsbury School and Sports college (Kingsbury Road, Erdington) from 1999 until 2004.
Tall, comfortable on the ball and an excellent passer, Osbourne has been compared to former Arsenal captain Patrick Vieira, who is his role model.
Osbourne was given the squad number 27 after Martin O'Neill's arrival at Aston Villa. Osbourne made his Premiership debut on 21st October 2006, when he came on as a second half substitute for Steven Davis against Fulham at Villa Park.
The former England Under-16 international made his name as one of the stars of a strong Aston Villa reserve outfit and the club are keen to tie him down on a long-term deal.
Isaiah has a relative who plays the same position at local rivals Coventry City called Isaac Osbourne.
