Adam Montgomery, a stalwart defender, primarily operating as a left-back, was born in Scotland on 18 July 2002, which puts him at the tender age of 23. A Celtic player through and through, he measures in at a modest 5ft 8in (1.73m) tall and weighs 9st 6lb (60kg). Montgomery is rarely seen without the number 37 jersey proudly displayed across his back.
Back in July 2009, Montgomery may have been an unfamiliar face to most, but Celtic saw something in him and brought him in as a trainee for the Premiership in Scotland. His first two seasons (2020 - 2021 and 2021 - 2022) saw him donning the Celtic jersey for a total of ten first team league matches. However, the current season (2025 - 2026) at Celtic in Scotland has yet to see him grace the field in a first team league match.
A shift happened in January 2022 when Montgomery was sent on loan, trading the Celtic green and white for the red of the Aberdeen Premiership. He made a total of seven first team appearances for Aberdeen in the 2021 - 2022 season. Once completed, he was promptly returned to his home turf at Celtic in the Premiership.
Shortly after his return in July 2022, he swapped the Premiership for the Championship, heading to St Johnstone in Scotland on loan. His time there proved productive, chalking up a steady 28 first team league match appearances. Then came another distant call, this time from Fleetwood Town in the English League Two in July 2023.
After a brief stint with them, Montgomery once again found himself back at Celtic in January 2024. This didn't last long, as he was loaned out again, this time to Motherwell in the Premiership in Scotland. Following his return from Motherwell, Montgomery recorded no further first team league appearances for Celtic, prompting yet another loan, this time to Queen's Park in the Championship in Scotland in February 2025.
This loan spell - in the 2024 - 2025 season - found Montgomery making 12 first team league appearances and even managing to get a goal to his name. Then, it was back to Celtic’s familiar green. But the story repeated once more: no first team league appearances led to his subsequent loan to Livingston in the Premiership in Scotland in July 2025. After eight more first team league appearances for Livingston, January 2026 saw him back at Celtic, where he currently awaits his call to the pitch in the first team.
It's safe to say Montgomery's career has been somewhat of a journeyman's tale, filled with a series of loans between Celtic in the Premiership and various other clubs in Scotland and England. However, at the heart of it all, his love and loyalty to Celtic remains.
