Jordan McGhee, born on 24 July 1996 in Scotland, is a 29-year-old professional footballer who operates mainly as a right back for Motherwell. McGhee, standing 6ft 2in (1.88m) tall and weighing in at 12st 3lb (78kg), can be identified on the pitch by his number 6 jersey. He holds a modest market value of £170k, as outlined by Transfermarkt.
Born into the realm of football in July 2007, young McGhee embarked on his career with Hearts in Scotland's Premiership division. His debut season (2012-2013) saw him pull on the maroon shirt only a single time for league matches. The following season witnessed McGhee making a more substantial 17 first team appearances and even putting away a goal. Increasing his tally to two goals, he represented Hearts in 18 league matrches in the 2014-2015 season. By the 2015-2016 season, McGhee had solidified his place, playing 22 league matches yet not adding to his goal total.
By July 2016, he sought new pastures, temporarily leaving Hearts for Middlesbrough in the Championship in England, in a loan deal. After his stint in England, he returned to Scotland, transferring to Falkirk in August 2017, although the transfer fee remains concealed. During his 2017-2018 season with Falkirk, McGhee made 17 first team appearances and managed to score two goals.
Advancing further north, the right-back then transferred from Falkirk to Dundee in July 2019. Over multiple seasons at Dundee, which spanned from 2021 to 2025, McGhee revealed a consistent work rate, making over 30 appearances for most seasons and even striking a personal best of five goals in the 2023-2024 season. His final season at Dundee in 2024-2025, saw McGhee participating in 23 first team league matches, resulting in four successful shots at the net.
The summer of 2025 marked another chapter in McGhee's career as he transferred to Motherwell. In the current 2025-2026 season, the Scotsman has already donned the Motherwell jersey three times for league matches. Supplementing his league performances, he has also made a cup appearance as a substitute in Motherwell's 2025-2026 Scottish Cup campaign.
