Ryan Fulton

Ryan Fulton of Heart of Midlothian was born in Burnley, England on 23 May 1996 (age 28).

Ryan Fulton, an English footballer, was born on the 23rd of May, 1996. He serves as a goalkeeper for Hearts. Standing tall at 6 ft 3 inches (1.91m) and weighing 12st 3lbs (78kg), he's a formidable presence between the posts. He can typically be seen sporting the number 12 jersey on match days.

The website Transfermarkt lists Fulton's current market value at around €50k, which equivalates to roughly £43k. His contractual obligations with Hearts remain in place until the 31st of May, 2026, with a duration of remaining 1 year and 3 months at the time of writing.

Threading through Fulton’s journey, in July 2015, the goalkeeper joined the ranks of Liverpool, competing in England's Premier League. However, by January 2016, Fulton was subsequently transferred on loan to Portsmouth, also in England but within the Championship league. In his debut season, covering 2015 to 2016, with Portsmouth, Fulton made a total of 12 appearances in league matches.

Another year saw yet another loan, this time Fulton moved to Chesterfield in England's League Two by July 2016. His season with Chesterfield, namely the 2016 – 2017 stretch, saw him making 26 first-team appearances in league matches.

Then came a shift, as Fulton transferred from Liverpool to Hamilton Academical, based in Scotland's Championship division, in July 2017. Over the span of several seasons with Hamilton Academic, from 2017 through to 2023, Fulton appeared as the first-team player in differing amounts, the most significant being the 2022 – 2023 season with 33 appearances.

Most recently, in July 2024, Fulton transferred from Hamilton Academical to Hearts, competing in Scotland's Premiership. However, his debut season, covering 2024 - 2025, with Hearts, so far disappointingly sees him not marking any first-team appearances in league matches.
