Elijah Just, born on 1 May 2000 (age 26), is a New Zealand right winger currently with Swansea City, where he wears the number 8 shirt. His market value is around £3m, according to Transfermarkt.
His best league return so far came at Motherwell in 2025–26, when he scored seven goals in 35 appearances. That was the spell that gave him his strongest club-level platform in Scotland, and it was enough to put him on Celtic’s radar. He was linked with a move to Celtic in May 2026.
Just is now at Swansea City, where his early involvement has been modest: three appearances across all competitions, including League Cup and Championship football. His international form for New Zealand has carried more obvious end product, with three goals in three World Cup appearances this season and four goals in one Oceania qualifier.
At this stage, Just’s career is built around a productive Scottish season with Motherwell, a move into the English Championship with Swansea, and a growing role for New Zealand.
