Mee was born in Manchester and since he joined City has risen through the Academy ranks. Statuesque at 5’11”, he played a pivotal role in the Under 18s FA Youth Cup success in 2008, captaining the side and scoring to help the Blues to a 4-2 aggregate victory over Chelsea.
After a couple of seasons gaining experience in the reserves, Mee was included in the squad that travelled on the 2010 pre-season US Tour. He made two appearances during his time Stateside: against the Portland Timbers and the New York Red Bulls. On returning to England and having just turned 21, Mee was included in the City starting line-up for the first time, but sadly the League Cup tie against West Brom at the Hawthorns ended in defeat for the Blues.
In January 2011 Mee linked up with former City manager Sven Goran Eriksson when he moved on loan to Championship side Leicester for the rest of the season. He made 15 League appearances for the Foxes before returning to City. Mee has since joined Burnley on a season-long loan, where he lines up alongside another Academy product in the shape of Keiran Trippier.
The defender made his England debut in July 2008, featuring as part of Brian Eastick’s Under 19 squad that travelled to the Czech Republic for the European Championship Finals.
Mee has also played for England Under 21s, coming on as a substitute in England’s 2-0 defeat to Germany in Wiesbaden in November 2010.
