Born in Scotland on 15 March 1992, Simon Murray, now 33, is a highly experienced striker at Dundee Football Club. Despite his stature of 1.82m (5ft 11in) and weight of 70kg (11st), he seamlessly treads his way to the front, donning jersey number 15. The current market evaluation provided by Transfermarkt holds his worth close to £135k.
The journey of his professional football career started in July 2010 with Montrose in League One Scotland, where he made but one appearance in his debut season. A series of short-lived tenures followed the next, leading him to Tayport Junior Teams in Scotland in January 2011 and then to Arbroath in the Championship by July 2014. It was with Arbroath the star within him started shining brightly as he marked his presence with 19 goals in 35 appearances.
By 2015, Dundee United of the Premiership wooed him with an offer of around £45k, a platform where Simon played 54 matches over two seasons, inspiring his fellow teammates with 17 goals in total. His time at Dundee United paved his path towards Hibernian, then in the Premiership, only to be shifted on a loan to Dundee in 2018. Upon his return to Scotland in 2018 post his stint overseas with Bidvest Wits, First Division South Africa, he played for Queen's Park in the Championship and Ross County, lighting up the pitch with his sterling performances.
Murray returned to Dundee in the Premiership in 2024 after a desconcerting time at Ross County in the Championship. From his initial days at Montrose to the present day at Dundee, Simon recited a tale of growth and unceasing commitment. Currently, in the 2025 - 2026 season at Dundee, he has featured 21 times for the club, adding three goals to his tally. He also played his part in League Cup 2025 - 2026 for Dundee, scoring twice in four starts, and participated in Scottish Cup 2025 - 2026 for Dundee with one start and one appearance as a substitute.
