James Patrick McCarthy is a professional footballer who plays as a central midfielder for Premier League club Crystal Palace and the Irish national team.

McCarthy made over 100 appearances for Hamilton Academical as a teenager, before being transferred to Wigan Athletic in 2009 for an initial £1.2 million which was a record sale fee for Hamilton Academical. After winning the FA Cup with Wigan in 2013, he moved to Everton, suffering from various injuries including a broken leg in 2018 which ruled him out for over a year.

Born and raised in Scotland, McCarthy elected to represent the Republic of Ireland at international level and made his competitive debut for their senior team on 26 March 2011 in a UEFA Euro 2012 qualifier against Macedonia. McCarthy was included in the Irish squad at UEFA Euro 2016.<\/P>","e_index":8};
