Joey Dawson is an English striker, born on 30 May 2003 (age 23), whose main Scottish connection came early in his senior career with Celtic.
He joined Celtic in July 2021 from Scunthorpe United, moving north as a young forward with a chance to develop inside a bigger club environment. It was a notable step, though not one to dress up beyond what it was: a young striker trying to make ground.
Dawson left Celtic in July 2025, returning to Scunthorpe United. His career to date has been shaped by that move from Scunthorpe to Celtic and back again, with his next stage continuing in English football.
