Born on 1 May 2000 (age 26), Elijah Just is a New Zealand right winger with Swansea City, where he wears the No 8 shirt. His current market value is around £3m, according to Transfermarkt.
His most productive league campaign came at Motherwell in 2025-26, when he scored seven goals in 35 appearances. That season also brought him into the wider transfer conversation, and he was linked with a move to Celtic in May 2026. Nothing more needs dressed up from that: it was a link, not a deal.
At Swansea in 2026-27, Just has made 10 Championship appearances and one League Cup appearance. His international work has carried more edge this season, with three goals in three World Cup appearances for New Zealand and four goals in one Oceania World Cup qualifier.
Just’s career has moved from a strong spell in Scotland to regular first-team football in England, with New Zealand also using him prominently. He remains an established professional rather than a finished article.
