Elliot Watt

Elliot Watt of Motherwell was born in Preston, England on 11 March 2000 (age 25).

Elliot Watt, born on 11 March 2000, hails from England and currently exhibits his abilities as a central defensive midfielder for Motherwell. His physical presence on the pitch is announced by a height of 5ft 10in (1.8m) and weight of around 11st 9lb (74kg). The number 20 jersey is his customary attire during matches. The player's market value revolves around approximately £425k, as quoted by Transfermarkt.

Tracing back his career journey, Watt was first affiliated with premier league side Wolverhampton Wanderers as a trainee in July 2016. In January 2020, he experienced his first loan spell, moving to National League side Carlisle United. By July 2020, another change of scenery approached, as he signed for Bradford City in League One, with the exact transfer fee kept undisclosed.

The young midfielder then took his talents to Salford City in League Two in July 2022, after leaving Bradford City, again for an undisclosed fee. His stint at Salford City saw him make 34 appearances for the senior team in the 2022-2023 league season.

Subsequently, in July 2024, Watt made a move to Burton Albion in the League One. However, this association proved to be brief as in January 2025, he was sent on loan to Scotland, joining St Johnstone in the Championship. A modest contribution of two goals in eight league appearances was marked by Watt during the 2024-2025 season at St Johnstone.

Leaving behind Burton Albion, Watt found a new home with Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership in July 2025. Currently, in the ongoing 2025-2026 season at Motherwell, Watt has already registered 18 appearances and two goals in league matches.
