Ross Doohan is a Scottish goalkeeper who presently finds himself back at Celtic Football Club. Born on 29th of March 1998, Doohan is an impressive figure on the pitch, standing at 1.86 metres (6.1 feet) and weighing 75kg (11st 11lb). He typically sports the number 31 jersey, a symbol of his days as a budding goalkeeper.
With an estimated market value sitting around £215k, as suggested by Transfermarkt, Doohan's career has seen him weave in and out of various football clubs, predominantly within Scotland itself. The journey began with Celtic before he meandered to a number of other clubs on numerous occasions on loan.
His first loan stint commenced with a journey from Celtic to Greenock Morton of the Scottish Championship in August 2017. A year later in July 2018, Doohan transferred from Celtic to Ayr United, another Championship team. Further loan spells occurred at Ross County in 2020, where he had five first team appearances, and Dundee United in April 2021, where he made two first team appearances.
As the summer of 2021 approached, Doohan returned to his homebase of Celtic after his loan spell at Dundee United ended. This homecoming was brief as he proceeded to be loaned out once more, this time to Tranmere Rovers in the English League Two in August 2021. His performance at Tranmere was commendable with Doohan appearing 25 times in first team league matches for the 2022-2023 season.
However, this trend would not continue, as after a return to Celtic in June, Doohan was once again on the move. In July 2022, he transferred to Tranmere Rovers permanently this time, for an undisclosed fee. He showed up 25 times in the league matches for Tranmere during the 2022-2023 season before yet another transfer took place.
In January of 2023, Doohan moved teams from Tranmere Rovers to Forest Green Rovers in the National League in England, once again for an undisclosed fee. However, in this short stint, Doohan only made ten first team appearances in league matches. His journey continued and he was soon transferring to Aberdeen in July of the same year, this time back in the Scottish Premiership. The 2023 – 2025 seasons saw Doohan making a total of 16 first-team appearances for Aberdeen.
Doohan would then find himself in familiar surroundings as he returned to Celtic in July 2025. However, it appears he is facing some trouble finding time on the first team as, in the current 2025 – 2026 season, he has yet to make a single appearance. The depths of Celtic's squad prove to be an Everest for this mountainous goalkeeper, yet his journey is far from over.
