Trusty's journey to Celtic began back home in America. In January 2016, he joined the Philadelphia Union in the MLS as a trainee. By 2018, Trusty had made 34 first team appearances and even scored a goal. In 2019, he managed 22 first team appearances with another goal under his belt.

During his time with the Colorado Rapids, Trusty made several appearances; 8 in 2020, 33 in 2021 and 16 in 2022, even scoring a goal. 2022 brought further changes as Trusty transferred to Arsenal in the Premier League for around £1.6m. However, he was shortly loaned back to the Colorado Rapids and subsequently to Birmingham City in England's Championship.
While on loan with Birmingham City in 2022 - 2023, Trusty made 44 first team appearances and scored four goals. August 2023 brought with it another transfer. This time, Trusty moved from Arsenal to Sheffield United in the Championship, with the transfer fee nearing £5m. Despite making 32 first team appearances in his first season, Trusty only appeared once in the 2024 - 2025 season.
In August 2024, Auston Trusty switched clubs once more, this time to Celtic for a sum of around £6m. During his inaugural season (2024 - 2025) with the Hoops, Trusty made 22 first team appearances and scored a single goal. In the current season (2025 - 2026), he has made one first-team appearance. He also participated in the Scottish Cup 2024 - 2025 for Celtic with two starts, and in the Champions League 2024 - 2025 for Celtic with nine starts and one substitute appearance.
It's been a short but eventful run for Auston Trusty at Celtic so far, and with his contract not set to expire until 2029, there's still plenty of time to make his mark with the Hoops.
