Auston Trusty is an impressive figure on any pitch, standing at 6ft 3in (1.91m) and weighing in at 12st 1lb (77kg). Born in the USA on 12 August 1998, Trusty is aged 26 and has cemented his place in Celtic's heart - he wears the number 6 jersey with distinction. Transfermarkt, a reliable source, values Trusty around £6.5m. He is set to remain at Celtic until 30 June 2029, his contract having 4 years and 1 month left.

Cutting his teeth in Major League Soccer (MLS), Trusty joined Philadelphia Union as a trainee back in January 2016. His formative years were promising - notching up 34 first-team appearances and scoring an impressive goal in his debut 2018 season, further appearing 22 times the following season, scoring another goal. Trusty succumbed to the lure of Colorado Rapids in November 2019, where he became an integral part of their defence in the three subsequent MLS seasons.

January 2022 saw Trusty make his trans-Atlantic move to Arsenal in the English Premier League. Priced at approximately £1.6m, his stay was brief and he returned to Colorado Rapids, albeit on loan, the following February. His time with Colorado Rapids was a repeat performance of his previous stints, culminating in a loan move to Birmingham City in July 2022. Trusty made 44 first team appearances for Birmingham City, netting four goals in the 2022 - 2023 season. He returned to the English soil with a £5m move to Sheffield United in August 2023, spending two seasons before hopping across the border to Scotland.

The final move in Trusty's lively career happened in August 2024, with a substantial £6m transfer to Celtic in the Premiership. Trusty now proudly represents Celtic in Scotland, where he has racked up 22 first team appearances and scored one goal in his current season 2024 - 2025, and will continue to do so in the 2025 - 2026 season. His participation in key fixtures like the Scottish Cup 2024 - 2025 and Champions League 2024 - 2025 - where he started in nine games and was a substitute once - only adds to his worth for the team.

An important figure in the Celtic defence, Auston Trusty has a promising future at the club. His solid performances, unyielding commitment, and match experience make him a valuable asset. Not just a giant in stature, Trusty's prowess on the pitch is undeniable, and Celtic are undoubtedly the beneficiaries of his service.
