Scottish-born Luke McCowan, hailing from the lands of tartan and thistles, graced this world with his presence on the 9th of December, 1997, making him currently 27 years of age. A staunch figure on the football pitch, McCowan expertly manoeuvres the gritty world of midfield territory, favouring the central attacking position for Celtic Football Club. With a stature of 1.77m (about 5 feet 9 inches) and a weight of 72kg (approximately 11 stones and 4lbs), these perhaps aren't the most formidable of statistics in the world of football, but his proficiency in his chosen role proves that excellence isn't merely a matter of size. This Celtic warrior, donning the number 14 jersey, carries an estimated worth in the vicinity of £2m, as reported by Transfermarkt.
Historically, our Highlander was roped into Ayr United's ranks in the Scottish Championship in the warm days of July 2016. His nascent football career began in the 2017 - 2018 season at Ayr United with a single, solitary first-team appearance in a league match. Subsequent years catapulted Mr. McCowan to the Premiership's Dundee in July 2021. Shining in green and blue, he stepped up his game, marking 29 maiden first-team matches and netted four goals during the 2021 - 2022 season.
For the next two rounds, Dundee continued to be his battleground as he strategically dribbled his way through 30 and 37 first-team matches in the respective seasons, scoring seven and ten goals. By season 2024 - 2025, he still had the drive to feature in three first-team matches, managing two successful strikes at the goal.
In what can be seen as a judicious decision assisting in Celtic's future victories, McCowan was enlisted in the Celtic squadron in August 2024 for a miracle sum hovering around £1m.
Making the Hoops his home, McCowan stepped onto the field 33 times in the 2024 - 2025 season, netting the ball six times in league matches. The ongoing season 2025 - 2026 hasn't yet witnessed its conclusion, but McCowan's records already indicate 12 first-team appearances and a single triumphant goal.
Additionally, his impressive track record continues during Celtic's time in the League Cup 2025 - 2026, contributing his skills to a match-start and substitute appearance, with one goal to his name. Adding to his catalogue, in the Scottish Cup 2024 - 2025, his dedication led to four substitute appearances and one match start, tallying another goal. His talent also featured in the Champions League Qualifiers 2025 - 2026, wherein he again served as a substitute.
