===Sheffield Wednesday===
In September 1985, he moved on to [[Sheffield Wednesday F.C.|Sheffield Wednesday]] for a fee of £300,000,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sporting-heroes.net/football-heroes/displayhero_club.asp?HeroID=16584|title=Stoke City FC 1982–1985|work=sporting-heroes.net|access-date=13 May 2009}}</ref><ref name="grecian">{{cite web |title=Chamberlain, Mark |url=https://grecianarchive.exeter.ac.uk/items/show/921 |website=grecianarchive.exeter.ac.uk |access-date=9 November 2022 |language=English}}</ref> who went on to finish fifth in the top-flight under [[Howard Wilkinson]] in [[1985–86 Football League|1985–86]], missing out on European football due to the ban imposed on English clubs following the [[Heysel Stadium disaster]].

===Portsmouth===
"Pompey" finished two places above the drop in [[1988–89 Football League|1988–89]], before 12th and 17th finishes in [[1989–90 Football League|1989–90]] and [[1990–91 Football League|1990–91]].

They then finished a disappointing 17th in [[1993–94 Football League|1993–94]], and Chamberlain moved on to [[Liam Brady]]'s [[Brighton & Hove Albion F.C.|Brighton & Hove Albion]] in August 1994, having played 167 games in his six years at [[Fratton Park]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sporting-heroes.net/football-heroes/displayhero_club.asp?HeroID=16586|title=Portsmouth FC 1988–1994|work=sporting-heroes.net|access-date=13 May 2009}}</ref>

Chamberlain moved on to [[Exeter City F.C.|Exeter City]] in the [[Football League Third Division|Third Division]] (the old Fourth Division). [[Peter Fox (footballer)|Peter Fox]]'s "Grecians" finished bottom of the Football League in [[1994–95 Football League|1994–95]], albeit level on goal difference with [[Scarborough F.C.|Scarborough]], and only avoided dropping into the [[National League (division)|Conference]] because [[Macclesfield Town F.C.|Macclesfield Town]]'s [[Moss Rose]] did not meet the Football League's capacity standards. Chamberlain was converted to the right-back position.<ref name="101 greats"/> Exeter rallied to a 14th-place finish in [[1995–96 Football League|1995–96]], though Chamberlain left [[St James Park (Exeter)|St James Park]] after the club finished third-from-bottom in [[1996–97 Football League|1996–97]], ahead of rock bottom [[Hereford United F.C.|Hereford United]] by just the one point.

==International career==
An [[England national under-21 football team|England under-21]] international, Chamberlain broke into the [[England national football team|England]] senior squad under [[Bobby Robson]] during his first season at Stoke City, scoring on his debut against [[Luxembourg national football team|Luxembourg]] at [[Wembley Stadium (1923)|Wembley]] on 15 December 1982, at age 21.<ref name="matthews2008"/> During the match, teammate [[Luther Blissett]] became the first [[black people|black]] player to score for England, having bagged two of his three goals before Chamberlain found the net.<ref>{{cite web|title=Goalscoring Black Players by Season|url=http://www.englandfootballonline.com/TeamBlack/PlyrsBlckMtchUsage/PlyrsBlackGoalscorers.html|work=englandfootballonline.com|access-date=22 February 2012}}</ref> He also made a substitute appearance in the 1–0 home defeat to [[Denmark national football team|Denmark]] on 21 September 1983;<ref>{{cite web|title=England 0 – 1 Denmark|url=http://en.archive.uefa.com/competitions/euro2012/history/season=1984/round=205/match=3369/report=ev.html|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120710054337/http://en.archive.uefa.com/competitions/euro2012/history/season=1984/round=205/match=3369/report=ev.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=10 July 2012|work=[[UEFA]]|access-date=22 February 2012}}</ref> this crucial result eventually led the Danes to win [[UEFA Euro 1984 qualifying|qualification]] to [[UEFA Euro 1984|Euro 1984]] [[UEFA Euro 1984 qualifying Group 3|ahead of England]].

==Style of play==
Chamberlain was a pacey winger with excellent ball control and decision-making.<ref name="matthews2008"/> Stoke City fan and author Simon Lowe wrote that "His slim, athletic build made him seem taller than his modest 5ft 9in height. But his [[dribbling]] style was upright, chest puffed out, with the ball in front being almost toe-ended on by his right foot, while his arms worked like pistons. A favourite trick saw Chamberlain wave his left foot over the ball and wiggle his hips before jagging it past the defender with the outside of the right foot."<ref name="hit"/> Former Port Vale teammate [[Robbie Earle]] wrote that "He could do it all: Run, [[Passing (association football)|pass]], shoot, make goals and score them. Chambo was the perfect wide man who could play on either flank and delighted in making chances for his teammates".<ref>{{cite news|last=Earle|first=Robbie|title=Here's my promotion-winning Vale team|url=http://www.thisisstaffordshire.co.uk/Robbie-Earle-s-promotion-winning-Vale-team/story-14401576-detail/story.html|access-date=12 January 2012|newspaper=[[The Sentinel (Staffordshire)|The Sentinel]]|date=12 January 2012}}</ref>

==Coaching career==
Chamberlain became [[player-manager]] of [[Non-League football|non-League]] [[Fareham Town F.C.|Fareham Town]] after leaving the Football League in 1997.<ref name="grecian"/> In April 2008, he took up the position of assistant coach of the [[Timor-Leste national football team]].<ref name="grecian"/> Six months later, he returned to England and joined the coaching staff at [[Portsmouth F.C.|Portsmouth]] to coach the U13s.<ref name="grecian"/>

==Personal life==
Chamberlain married Wendy R. Oxlade in 1991.<ref>{{cite web |title=England BME Players - Mark Chamberlain |url=http://www.englandfootballonline.com/TeamPlyrsBios/PlayersC/BioChamberlainMV.html |website=www.englandfootballonline.com |access-date=13 March 2023}}</ref> His sons [[Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain|Alex]] and [[Christian Oxlade-Chamberlain|Christian]] are also footballers,<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/christian-oxlade-chamberlain-aims-follow-11618579|title=Alex Oxlade Chamberlain's brother looking to make headlines in the FA Cup|first=Alex|last=Richards|date=1 December 2017|website=mirror}}</ref> as was his older brother [[Neville Chamberlain (footballer)|Neville]].
