Josh Mulligan, a bright spark born on 12 November 2002, hails from the bonnie land of Scotland. This lad, who stands at a not entirely towering 5ft 8in (1.75m), and weighs about 12st 1lb (77kg), is currently gracing the greenspaces of the Premiership in Scotland as a central midfielder for Hibernian. He wears the number 20 jersey, more than likely the number he requested, I'm sure.
Having donned the mythical blue jersey of the Scotland national team, endearing him to our proud nation, Mulligan's current value stands at a shocking £1m, according to Transfermarkt. And we thought we'd seen it all.
Now let’s trot down memory lane and revisit his glorious career, shall we? In July 2017, Mulligan was introduced to the world of screaming fans and overpriced snacks as a trainee for Dundee in the Premiership. Over the years, he went on to make almost a century of appearances, an achievement equal parts admirable and eyebrow-raising, considering his sole debut season appearance. Nevertheless, that didn’t deter this young lad from racking up a riotous 11 appearances in 2021-2022 and an overwhelming two goals to help seal the deal.
What does an ambitious young lad do when he's made his name in Dundee? Why, he packs his kit and heads off to the mystical land of Cove Rangers in League One. Yes, he ventured on a "loan" sojourn in January 2020, before meandering back home to Dundee like a prodigal son that June.
His boots were apparently made for walking, as Mulligan decided to spread his wings and grace Peterhead with his illustrious presence on a loan in October 2020, before trudging back to Dundee yet again after his six months of fame had run their course. Ever the globetrotter, he simply couldn't resist another whirlwind tour – this time back to Peterhead – in July 2021, before sauntering back to Dundee in January 2022.
Now, it seems this lad has finally settled (for now), after trading his Dundee kit for a Hibernian one in July 2025. His new club, with all its prestige, splashed out on an undisclosed fee to secure Mulligan’s Scot-gold services. We can only imagine how robustly he is enhancing his career over in Hibernian, where he has impressively made 21 first team appearances and written his name on the score sheet once this 2025-2026 season. Marvelous.
But let's not limit this esteemed midfielder to just the league. He's also showcased his sublime talent in the League Cup and Europa League Qualifiers for Hibernian, even popping a ball into the back of the net in the Conference League Qualifiers. Now isn't that just peachy.
