Club career
Choudhury began his career at the Leicester City Academy, and at the age of 16 was reportedly monitored by a number of top European clubs.[3] He joined League One leaders Burton Albion on a one-month loan deal on 27 February 2016.[4] He made his debut in the Football League later that same day, coming on as a 77th-minute substitute for Tom Naylor in a 0–0 draw with Walsall at the Pirelli Stadium.[5]
On 6 August 2016, Choudhury signed another loan deal with Burton Albion for the 2016–17 season.[6] On the same day, Choudhury featured in Burton Albion's first ever Football League Championship game, claiming an assist in a 4–3 defeat against Nottingham Forest.[7]
On 19 September 2017, Choudhury debuted for Leicester City coming on as substitute in the 82nd minute of a EFL Cup 3rd round home win against Liverpool.[8] On 28 November 2017, Choudhury made his Premier League debut for Leicester coming on as substitute in the 83rd minute of a home win against Tottenham.[9] His first Premier League start came on 14 April 2018, in a 2–1 away defeat to Burnley.[10]
International career
On 26 May 2018, Choudhury made his debut for the England national under-21 football team, coming on as a substitute during the 2–1 win against China under-21 in the 2018 Toulon Tournament.[11] Choudhury started for England in the next match of the tournament, a 0–0 draw against Mexico.[12]
On 27 May 2019, Choudhury was included in England's 23-man squad for the 2019 UEFA European Under-21 Championship[13] but was shown a straight red card for a reckless tackle during the second-half of the opening 2-1 defeat to France in Cesena.[14]
Personal life
Choudhury's father is Grenadian and his mother is of Bangladeshi descent. Regarding his ethnicity Hamza has stated: "Both my parents are Bangladeshi and I have been brought up in an Asian family, but I have Caribbean blood in me as my dad is from Grenada. We have a massive family".[15][16]
In April 2019 he apologised for historical offensive tweets.[17] He was later charged with misconduct by the FA,[18] and fined £5,000 and put on an educational course.[19]
