Michael Turner (born November 9, 1983) is a professional footballer currently playing for Hull City in England's Football League Championship.
Turner is a defender who was signed from Brentford in July 2006 for a fee of £350,000. He had joined Brentford from Charlton Athletic in August 2004, having previously had a loan spell at Leyton Orient in the 2002-03 season. He was highly rated at Griffin Park, being voted Players' Player of the Year in the 2004-05 season and Supporters' Player of the Year in the 2005-06 season.
Turner was new manager Phil Parkinson's first signing for the Tigers. Parkinson said of the signing: "He's a player that I've watched for a number of years, firstly with Charlton reserves and then obviously with Brentford. I like him a lot and believe he'll be an excellent signing for us because he's ready to play Championship football. Michael was the best central defender in League One last season and is ready to step up."
