Max Watters was born on the 23rd of March 1999 in England. He is currently a 26-year-old forward primarily playing as a striker for Dundee United. Watters hosts a decent height of 5ft 11in (1.81m) and a robust weight of 12st 8lb (80kg). He dons the number 36 jersey for his club. His increasing influence in the game has managed to foster his market value, which roughly stands at approximately €400k (around £345,000), as per the data from Transfermarkt.
Watters’ football journey saw him shift from Ashford United in the Isthmian League to Doncaster Rovers in the League One of England in July 2018 for an undisclosed fee. Following this, in August 2018, he was loaned off to Grantham Town in the Southern Football League, subsequently returning to Doncaster in June 2019. Watters found himself on another loan spell, this time to Mickleover Sports in the Lower Leagues in England in September 2019, only to return to Doncaster in November later that year.
In a significant progression in his career, he moved from Doncaster Rovers to Crawley Town, a League Two club in England in October 2020. January 2021 saw his transfer from Crawley Town to Cardiff City, again for an undisclosed fee. He exhibited promising performances at Cardiff between the 2020 and 2023 seasons, making 22 first-team appearances and scoring one goal in league matches.
Watters was loaned off to MK Dons in the League Two during July 2021, and in January 2022 he reverted to Cardiff City. However, within a year's time, in January 2023 Watters found himself on a loan spell at Barnsley in the League One, where he made seven first-team appearances and scored one goal in the 2022-2023 season.
His move from Cardiff City to Barnsley became permanent in July 2023, yielding similar statistics to his previous loan tenure. Soon after, in July 2025, he was loaned off to Dundee United in the Scottish Premiership.
In the current 2025-2026 season at Dundee United, Watters has so far made ten first team appearances and scored one goal in the league matches. Besides, he also participated in the League Cup and the Conference League Qualifiers for Dundee United, exhibiting an impressive performance with three goals under his belt in just four appearances.
