Born on the 12th of March 2001 in England, Liam Shaw, a 24-year-old robust footballer, has staked his claim in the beautiful game as a midfielder. Known for his prudence and efficiency in the central midfield, Shaw serves Northampton Town with unceasing fervour, his 6ft 1in (1.87m) figure dominating the midfield like an unwavering figurehead. Tipping the scales at 11st 6lb (73kg), he dons the number 29 jersey with a certain bravado that accentuates his on-field persona.
Shaw's first foot in professional football was in July 2017, when he joined Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship as a trainee. His debut season in 2019-2020 saw only a modest two first team appearances, but his follow-up year saw his numbers escalate to 19 appearances and an accompanying solitary goal.
By July 2021, the Scottish Premiership giants, Celtic, secured Shaw's services for a fee of around £300k. Regrettably, his stint at the Parkhead club only granted him a modest first-team appearance, but it was during this period that fans got to truly appreciate his exquisite technical prowess.
His subsequent move from Celtic to Motherwell on loan, also in the Scottish Premiership, in January 2022 saw him further develop his craft. His Scottish football voyage continued with seven first-team appearances at Motherwell, making the most of his time at Fir Park.
Shaw's transitions later took him back south into England, with a September 2022 loan spell to Morecambe in League Two from Celtic, proudly displaying the number 29 shirt, and netting two goals in his 28 first-team appearances.
After his successful tenure at Morecambe, Celtic loaned him to Wigan Athletic in League One in England, in July 2023, providing him more opportunity to deepen his football acumen. His pivotal career moment came in October 2024, when he made the permanent move from Celtic to Fleetwood Town in the League Two, leaving Scotland to make his mark back in English football.
Northampton Town in the League One secured his services from Fleetwood Town in January 2025; his current stats denote eight first-team appearances and an equal pair of goals. These impressive figures epitomise Liam Shaw's commendable journey in the world of football thus far. His admirers await his progress with great expectation.
