Jon McCracken, born 24 May 2000, hails from Scotland and is the proud wearer of the number 1 jersey for Dundee. Standing staunchly at 6ft (1.85m) tall, and weighing 12st 1lb (77kg), he makes an authoritative presence between the sticks. With a market value hovering around £426k, according to Transfermarkt, McCracken represents a sound investment in goalkeeping talent.
McCracken's journey in the world of football commenced in earnest in August 2016, when he linked up with Norwich City as a trainee in England's Championship. McCracken then went on a series of loans between 2022 and 2023, seeing him ply his trade at Bohemian FC in the Republic of Ireland’s Premier Division, in addition to appearances in Stevenage in England's League One. These experiences doubtless broadened McCracken’s goalkeeping skills and life experience alike.
July 2023 saw a shift in McCracken's career with a loan move from Norwich City to Dundee, marking his return to his homeland. This first spell in Scottish Premiership saw McCracken make an impact, making 12 first team appearances in league matches for the 2023-2024 season. A subsequent loan stint in Accrington Stanley in England’s League Two followed shortly after in September 2023.
February 2024 saw McCracken embarking on his second loan spell with Dundee in the Scottish Premiership, furthering his experience and exposure to top-tier football in Scotland. Over the 2024-2025 season he made 16 first team appearances in league matches. As of the current 2025-2026 season at Dundee, McCracken continues to be a reliable figure in the squad, appearing in 16 first team league matches.
In July 2024, McCracken finally cut ties with Norwich, transferring permanently to Dundee. This established his definitive place in Scotland's Premiership and he has been diligently fulfilling his role, proving himself an asset to the club and consistently appearing in their first team line-up.
