Standing at 5ft 11in (1.82m) and weighing 11st (70kg), the number 15 player is a force to be reckoned with on the pitch. As per the latest measures from Transfermarkt, his current market value is approximately £130k.
Murray began his football career with Montrose in the Scottish League One in July 2010, though he only made one first team appearance in his debut season. In January 2011, he departed for Tayport in the Scottish Junior Teams before moving on to Arbroath in the Championship league in July 2014. At Arbroath, he began to prove his worth, impressing with 19 goals in 35 league matches.
After a successful stint at Arbroath, Dundee United in the Premiership signed Murray in July 2015 for around £50,000. His results were consistent, with seven goals and 22 appearances in his first season and ten goals from 32 appearances in 2016 - 2017.
July 2017 saw Murray change teams again, this time moving to Hibernian in the Premiership, with six goals from 22 matches. However, in January 2018, he shifted on loan to Dundee and debuted for his current team. From 2017 - 2018 at Dundee, he scored three goals in 14 appearances, and in his notable 2024 - 2025 season, he scored 16 impressive goals from 38 appearances. In the current 2025 - 2026 season, he has scored four goals from 22 appearances.
Murray had a brief interlude with Bidvest Wits in South Africa's First Division from July 2018, a transfer which cost approximately £150,000. However, he returned to Scotland in September 2020, signing with Queen's Park in the Championship, where he netted 15 goals in 22 league matches during the 2022 - 2023 season.
In January 2023, Murray moved to Ross County in the Championship for an undisclosed fee. He had a notable goal tally here too, with two goals in 14 matches in the 2022 - 2023 season and 14 goals from 37 matches in 2023 - 2024.
His travel across Scottish football teams continued as Murray moved on to his present club, Dundee, in July 2024. He recorded his highest scoring season yet with Dundee in 2024 - 2025, bagging 16 goals in 38 appearances. As of the 2025 - 2026, he has four goals from 22 appearances, making his presence felt in both the League Cup and the Scottish Cup, by scoring two goals in four starts and making an appearance as a substitute respectively.
