Gavin Molloy, born on 19 October 2001 (age 24), is a Republic of Ireland central defender with Aberdeen, where he wears number 21. His current market value is around £510,000, according to Transfermarkt.
Most of the substance in his senior career still comes from Shelbourne. Across three seasons there, Molloy made 68 league appearances and scored four league goals, giving him the kind of proper first-team grounding young defenders either get or spend years pretending they have had.
His best league return came in 2022, when he scored two goals in 19 appearances for Shelbourne. That spell remains the main body of work on his record rather than a footnote before Scotland.
At Aberdeen in 2025-26, Molloy has remained involved in the first team, making 18 league appearances, three League Cup appearances and one Scottish Cup appearance. Across all competitions for Aberdeen, he has made 22 appearances.
Molloy’s career to this point is built mainly on his Shelbourne years, followed by a current Aberdeen spell in which he continues to be part of the senior squad picture.
