Elijah Just, born on 1 May 2000 (age 26), is a New Zealand right winger with Swansea City, where he wears the number 8 shirt. His current market value is around £3m, according to Transfermarkt.
His strongest league return so far came at Motherwell in 2025-26, when he scored seven goals in 35 appearances. That season gave him a useful foothold in Scottish football without turning him into something grander than he is – an established, developing wide player with end product beginning to show.
He was linked with a move to Celtic in May 2026. That was the extent of the Celtic angle: a transfer link, not a completed move.
Just is now at Swansea City. In 2026-27 he has made three Championship appearances and one League Cup appearance, four in total across all competitions for the club.
He has also been active for New Zealand this season, scoring three goals in three World Cup appearances and four goals in one Oceania World Cup qualifying appearance. His career to date has taken him from a productive spell at Motherwell into the English Championship, with his international record giving the profile a bit more substance.
