A loan move in August 2013 sent Main to League One's Shrewsbury Town until October of the same year, where he put in five appearances for the team.

Main's next significant transfer came in July 2016 when he left Doncaster Rovers to join Portsmouth in the Championship, for an undisclosed fee. After a decent although not prolific run with Portsmouth, Main moved north of the border to Scotland, joining Motherwell in the Premiership in January 2018.
Two seasons at Motherwell saw Main make 47 appearances, where he scored eight goals. A switch of clubs within the Premiership then saw Main move to Aberdeen in July 2019, where he played for the next two seasons until February 2021. Following a second spell at League One's Shrewsbury Town, Main signed for St Mirren in July 2021, where he significantly improved his goal tally, making 68 appearances and scoring 11 goals over 2 seasons.
After a brief stint in India with I-League's Bengaluru, Main returned to the Scottish Premiership with Dundee in January 2024. His performance for the current season 2024 - 2025 shows 14 first team appearances with two goals to his credit. The League Cup 2024 - 2025 saw him make a remarkable contribution of four goals for Dundee in three starts and three substitute appearances.
