Simon Murray

Simon Murray of Dundee was born in Dundee, Scotland on 15 March 1992 (age 34).

Simon Murray, a Scotland-born forward primarily playing for Dundee, was gifted with life on the 15th of March, 1992. The chap currently sports the significant age of 34. He proudly dons the number 15 jersey, showcasing his talents as a striker with his 5ft 11in (1.82m) stature and 11 st (70 kg) weight. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value sits approximately around £85k.

It was in July 2010, that the young Murray's career took flight, joining Montrose in Scotland's League One. His debut season, 2010-2011, was rather uneventful, marking just one first team appearance. His stay at Montrose was short-lived, with young Murray transferring to Tayport Junior Team in January 2011.

Summoning his talents, he made a leap to Championship team Arbroath in July 2014. His fervor evident, as he scored 19 goals in the 35 matches he played in season 2014 - 2015. Fulfilling his ambition, Murray moved from Arbroath to Dundee United in Scotland's Premiership in July 2015. The lad reportedly cost Dundee United around £43k. He seemed quite at home with Dundee United, scoring 17 goals in 54 matches across seasons 2015-2016 and 2016-2017.

Ensuingly, Murray moved over to Hibernian in the Premiership in July 2017. Unfortunately, his performance faltered a tad, netting only six goals in 22 matches in season 2017 - 2018. However, Dundee took him on loan in January 2018. Murray's performance improved with 3 goals in 14 matches in season 2017 - 2018, 16 goals in 38 matches in season 2024 - 2025, and has managed 5 goals in 26 matches in the current season 2025 - 2026.

A notable shift in Murray's career saw him move from Hibernian to Bidvest Wits in South Africa's First Division for a sum of £129k in July 2018. The forward later returned to Scotland, joining Queen's Park in the Championship in September 2020, where he stunned with 15 goals in 22 matches in season 2022 - 2023. In January 2023, Murray transferred to Ross County in the Championship for an undisclosed fee, netting 16 goals in 51 matches across seasons 2022-2023 and 2023-2024.

Returning to his familiar grounds, Murray transferred yet again from Ross County to Dundee in the Premiership in July 2024. Here, he continued to make his mark scoring 24 goals in 78 matches across seasons 2024 - 2025 and 2025 - 2026. He also scored two goals in four starts for Dundee in the League Cup 2025 - 2026 and made one start along with one appearance as a substitute in the Scottish Cup 2025 - 2026. Quite the journey it has been for Simon Murray, and it's far from done yet.
