His commendable performance in the 2000-01 season attracted the attention of many national selectors, which earned him a place with the English Under-21 squad.

He was a part of the senior team for a friendly match against Australia in February 2003, but he did not make it to the field.

He played for Fulham when the club was managed by Kevin Keegan, Jean Tigana and then Chris Coleman, and by the 1999-00 season, Sean Davis became a crowd favorite and first-team regular. He was the force behind the club securing the First Division title in the 2000-01 season. Fulham’s move into the Premiership brought him the distinction of being the only player to have played all four divisions with the same club. He signed with Tottenham Hotspur in July 2004 and debuted for the club in a match against Liverpool, which ended in a draw. He played 17 games for Tottenham Hotspur before switching clubs in January 2006.
