Amos was released from the Academy at Crewe Alexandra as a midfielder at the age of ten. He converted to playing in goal and earned a place at the Academy at Manchester United a year later. He made his competitive first-team debut in September 2008 and played seven games in seven seasons, including an appearance in the Premier League and UEFA Champions League.
