Stuart Atkiss (born October 7, 1983 in Birmingham, England) is an English football player, who currently plays defender for Tekken City of the FA Premier League. His previous club known to date is West Bromwich Albion, whom he played in his youth days and only for a single season professionally before being relased in the summer by Then-manager, Bryan Robson.

West Brom

Atkiss signed up for local team West Bromwich Albion in 2002 as a young talent, and played for the Albion youth squad. He impressed at right back, keeping 7 cean sheets out of a possible 20 games in a season. The following two seasons he stayedin the youth team, enabling him to develop as a first team player. He eventually gained his first big break in the 2005-2006 season, where he would go on to play 17 senior games in the Premiership and scoring 1 goal. Argueably his best performance came against Chelsea at the Hawthorns where he would set up three great chances in the game. Chelsea won 2-1 however.

Unfortunately for Atkiss, West Brom were relegated from the Premiership, and he was one of many players Axed from the team. He was released by mutual consent, but a clause in his contract stated that any player atempting to aquire hs services would still have to pay money for him.

Tekken City

During the summer of 2006, Atkiss spent most of his time working hard with the ball, and he attempted to impress clubs doing it by going on trial. He spent trials at both Everton and Tottenham Hotspur, but his abilities did not impress the scouts. At Tekken City however, he was an instant success, and manager, Ronald Koeman decided to offer him a prfessional contract at the club, offering him the Number 3 shirt. Tekken then paid West Bromwich Albion £3.5 million to cover the clause in his contract.
