Marcus Fraser, born on 23 June 1994 (age 32), is a Scottish central defender whose career began at Celtic but has been shaped far more by what came after.
He came through at Celtic as a trainee, though his senior career was always going to be built elsewhere. In January 2015 he left Celtic for Ross County, where he started to gather regular first-team football. His 2014-15 league season there brought 16 appearances and one goal.
After Ross County, Fraser found his long-term footing at St Mirren. That is the club most closely tied to his career: seven seasons, 216 league appearances and four league goals. It is not a glamorous statistical profile, but central defenders rarely get paid for decoration.
In 2026-27, he has made two league appearances for St Mirren, along with five in the League Cup, three in the Scottish Cup and two in the Premiership play-offs, where he scored once.
Fraser’s career has run from Celtic’s youth system to Ross County and then into a sustained spell at St Mirren. It is a steady Scottish top-flight career, defined above all by durability and long service in Paisley.
