Sam Dalby

Sam Dalby of Dundee United was born in Leytonstone, England on 17 January 2000 (age 25). Today is Sam Dalby's birthday.

Sam Dalby, born on 17th January 2000 and currently 24 years old hails from England. A forward and primary striker who represents Dundee United, he possesses an imposing figure standing 6ft 3in (1.91m) tall and weighing in at 12st 3lb (78kg). Donning the number 19 on his back, he has carved out a space for himself in the team.

As per estimates on Transfermarkt, Dalby's current market value reaches approximately £235k. His present contract with Dundee United is due for expiration on 31 May 2025, only five months from now.

Dalby began his career in July 2015 as a trainee for Leyton Orient in England's League One. From 2016-2018, he made a total of 18 appearances for the team on the first level and netted his first professional goal. Following this initial stint, Leeds United in the Championship purchased him for an undisclosed fee in January 2018.

Struggling to find the net and battling for a first team place, Dalby sought out loan moves to Morecambe in the League Two come January 2019. In the same vein, Dalby transferred to Watford in the Championship only several months later, in July 2019. Despite this move, Dalby continued his pattern of seeking loan moves, joining Stockport County in League One and Woking in the National League respectively in the early part of 2021.

Later on in July 2021, he moved from Watford to Southend United, which competes in the National League. In August 2022, Dalby transferred once more, this time to Wrexham in League One, where he made his mark with 5 goals in 32 appearances in the first team during the 2022 - 2023 season.

In the continuing trend of his career, Dalby switched clubs yet again. In August 2024, he made his move North of the border to Scottish Premiership side Dundee United. In his debut 2024 - 2025 season at the club, he has flourished with 10 goals in 19 appearances to date.
