Fulham
Born in Dublin, Ireland, Kavanagh started his youth career at Belvedere before joining Fulham in 2011. While making his progress at the club's academy, Kavanagh struggled with injuries, but managed to regain his fitness.
After progressing the club's academy for the past three years, Kavanagh made his first team debut for Fulham in a 0–1 home loss on 20 August 2014 against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Craven Cottage. After the match, Kavanagh told the club's website that his debut for Fulham was a proud moment. Kavanagh scored his first goal for the club in the 1-0 win over Norwich City. After an impressive breakthrough season, and reported interest from Barcelona, Kavanagh signed a new deal keeping him tied down with Fulham until 2018. Kavanagh later said in an interview, "Why would I play with Messi when I can play with Richard Stearman and Shaun Hutchinson?". However, Kavanagh's season was later interrupted when he suffered injuries twice during the season: once with a thigh injury in November and another with a knee injury in January. Despite this, Kavanagh played a role when he provided assist for Ross McCormack and then provided another assist for Matt Smith, in a 1-0 win over Blackpool. Though playing in midfield under the management of Kit Symons, Kavanagh made nineteen appearances and scoring once for the 2014-15 season.
In the 2015–16 season, Kavanagh struggled to be in the first team, having spent most of the time being on the substitute bench and was limited even further following the arrivals of James Husband and Luke Garbutt. It wasn't until on 21 November 2015 when Kavanagh made his first appearance of the season, playing 90 minutes, in a 1-1 draw against MK Dons. He made another appearance in the next game against Preston North End... Kavanagh went on to make seven appearances for the club before returning to his parent club in May 2016.
International career
Kavanagh has represented Republic of Ireland's U16, U17 and U19 before representing U21.
