Born on 27th of March 1969, Stuart Slater is a former professional footballer hailing from England. Slater, who occupied a midfield role, boasts a stature of 5ft 8in (1.75m) and a weight of 10st 5lb (66kg). In April 1987, the ambitious player joined the Premier League team, West Ham United. He, however, didn't make any appearances in league matches during his debut season. The following season, he managed to make a minor breakthrough with two appearances in league matches. Staying true to his tenacity, Slater gradually increased his presence on the pitch, going from 18 appearances with one goal in the 1988-1989 season to 40 appearances with three goals in the 1991-1992 season.
In August 1992, Slater crossed the border, joining Celtic Football Club in the Scottish Premiership for a fee of approximately £1.5m. His first season with Celtic (1992-1993) saw him making 39 appearances and scoring two goals in league matches. He added another year to his tenure with the renowned Scottish club during the 1993-1994 season, where he completed an additional four first team appearances and scored one goal in league matches.
Slater returned to England in September 1993, joining Ipswich Town in the Premier League for a fee of around £750k. His journey with Ipswich town witnessed a decent number of first team appearances: 28 in the 1993-1994 season; 27 in the 1994-1995 season and; 17 in the 1995-1996 season. His goal scoring, however, remained relatively modest. Slater was assigned to Leicester City in September 1996, but unfortunately failed to make any appearances during his short spell in the club. Slater didn't stay idle for long and quickly moved on to Watford in the Championship in November 1996. He made steady contributions to the team during the two seasons to come, contributing 16 appearances and one goal in the 1996-1997 season and a further 14 appearances in the 1997-1998 season.
