Tony Watt, a native of Scotland, born on the 29th December 1993, is a forward who currently serves his football talent for Motherwell. Donning the number 52 jersey, Watt brings a formidable presence on the field with a height of 5ft 11in (1.82m) and a weight of 13st 12lb (88kg). According to Transfermarkt, Tony Watt's market value circles around the £250k mark. He is contracted to play for Motherwell until the end of May 2025, covering a short span of five months.
Chronicling his career journey, Watt began his professional football career with Airdrieonians in the Scottish Championship in July 2010, scoring three goals in his debut season with 15 appearances.
Watt's remarkable journey at Celtic commenced in January 2011 when he moved from Airdrieonians for a sum of £100k. This move marked the beginning of three eventful seasons at Celtic for Watt. During the 2011-2012 season, the young forward made three appearances and netted two goals. The following season saw a significantly higher contribution from Watt, where he featured in 20 games, securing five goals. His final season with Celtic in 2013-2014 was cut short, with Watt making only two appearances before moving to Belgian side Lierse SK on loan.
Following stints in Belgian football with Lierse SK and Standard Liege, Watt returned to the British Isles to play for Charlton Athletic in January 2015. He held the fort at Charlton across various seasons, punctuated by loan spells at Cardiff City, Blackburn Rovers, Hearts, and finally, a permanent move to Belgian team Oud-Heverlee Leuven in August 2017.
In July 2018, Watt returned to Scottish football, this time joining the ranks of St Johnstone. After a year in the Premiership, Watt shifted his services to Bulgarian team CSKA Sofia before another homecoming call from Motherwell in February 2020 emerged. His performances for Motherwell earned another transfer, this time to Dundee United in January 2022 for around £100k, with a short loan to St Mirren punctuating his tenure.
In an intriguing twist, Watt returned to Motherwell on loan in August 2024 and has, to date, made 18 appearances and scored a single goal during the current 2024-2025 season.
