Graham Carey, born on 20th May 1989 in Ireland, is a forward sporting the number 10 jersey for Livingston Football Club. He primarily plays as a left winger. Standing at 6 feet (1.83 metres) and tipping the scales at 11 stone 9 pounds (74 kilograms), he has established a remarkable presence on the pitch.
His football journey started at Celtic in the Scottish Premiership in 2007, which gave him a solid foundation in the sport. During the years before 2013, he was loaned out several times, including to Bohemian FC in the Republic of Ireland in 2009 where he made 15 first team appearances and netted two league goals. In 2010, Carey was loaned to St Mirren in the Scottish Premiership where he made significant strides, consisting of 15 first team appearances and three league goals in his inaugural season.
Following a string of progressive seasons at St Mirren, totalling to more than 70 appearances and six goals, Carey was transferred to Huddersfield Town, in the League One of England, on loan in July 2010. His tenure at Huddersfield was short but productive, amassing 19 first team appearances and two league goals that season.
In 2011, Carey permanently left Celtic for St Mirren where he proved his mettle in the succeeding seasons, tallying further appearances and goals. His fruitful run at St Mirren culminated in the 2012-2013 season. In July 2013, he transferred from St Mirren to Ross County in the Championship in Scotland, notching up regular first team appearances and contributions in terms of goals.
Before the end of the decade, Carey moved to Plymouth Argyle in League One in England in July 2015. This turned out to be a successful stint with several appearances and a surge in goal count, peaking at 14 league goals in the 2016-2017 season. His performances then piqued the interest of CSKA Sofia in Bulgaria to which he transferred in 2019. His contributions were steady across seasons, as evidenced by more than 60 appearances and a handful of goals.
Carey returned to Scottish football with St Johnstone in the Championship in July 2022. He displayed consistency through multiple seasons, earning over 100 first team appearances and netting a decent share of goals. Currently, he plays for Livingston in the Premiership in Scotland in the 2025-2026 season, where he has already made two first-team appearances.
Moreover, Carey has been particularly active in the cup fixtures as well, with one such recent involvement being the League Cup 2025-2026 for Livingston.
As of now, Carey's market value is estimated at being around £60k according to Transfermarkt.
