The 29 year old first signed for Cardiff on loan for the 2008/09 season. He then made a permanent move in 2010 and was at City for two seaons. Mostly as an understudy to David Marshall but he did play in all of City's League Cup run that ended in defeat after a penalty shoot out at Wembley against Liverpool.
Heaton has spent the last two season's at Burnley as their first choice keeper firstly enjoying promotion to the Premier League in 2014 but after just one season Burnley have been relegated. Heaton layed every game this season in the top flight.
Roy Hodgson has selected Heaton along with Joe Hart and Robert Green for England's friendly against The Republic of Ireland and the Euro 2016 qualifier against Slovenia.
Heaton has played at several levels for England upto U21.
Massive congratulations to Tom Heaton on his call up to the England squad. What an achievement and thoroughly deserved.

His boss Sean Dyche said: 'To get the call-up has been outstanding and it’s great from an England point of view.
'It must be hard for Roy and his staff when it’s suggested that certain players have to be involved, let’s say, and I think he is beginning to look beyond that and try things out.
'Tom has deserved it and he’s earned the right. It’s great for our club as well. It’s 40 years since someone was called up (for Burnley), and so that in itself is tremendous.'
