Simon Murray

Simon Murray of Dundee was born in Dundee, Scotland on 15 March 1992 (age 33).

Simon Murray, a native of Scotland, was born on the 15th of March, 1992. Now aged 33, he plays forward, predominantly as a striker, for Dundee Football Club. Standing at 5ft 11in (1.82m) tall and weighing 11st (70kg), he's recognised on the field in his number 15 jersey. His current market value is estimated at around £160k, according to Transfermarkt.

Murray's football career elevated when he joined Montrose in the League One in Scotland in July 2010. His solitary season, 2010 - 2011, at Montrose saw him making one single team appearance in league matches. In January 2011, in search of more game time, perhaps, Murray transferred from Montrose to Tayport, a team competing in the Junior Leagues in Scotland.

After spending some time honing his skills at Tayport, Murray shifted to Arbroath in the Scottish Championship in July 2014. During the 2014 - 2015 season, he made impressive strides, making 35 first-team appearances, and scoring an impressive 19 goals. In July 2015, he transferred from Arbroath to Dundee United in the Scottish Premiership for a sum of around £40k. His performances for Dundee United over two seasons saw him net 17 goals in 54 league matches.

In July 2017, Murray stepped into another challenge, transferring from Dundee United to Hibernian, also in the Premiership. In his first season, 2017-2018, he made 22 first-team appearances and scored an admirable six goals. He then transferred from Hibernian on loan to Dundee. During the 2017-2018 season, he made 14 first team appearances, and scored three goals. His current season, 2025-2026, has seen him make 16 appearances, scoring one goal.

In July 2018, Murray took his skills overseas, marking a new chapter in his football career by transferring from Hibernian to Bidvest Wits in the First Division, South Africa, for a fee of around £120k. His foreign stint was short-lived, however, as he transferred back to Scotland, joining Queen's Park in the Championship in September 2020.

After impressive performances at Queen's Park, where he netted 15 goals in 22 matches in the 2022-2023 season, Murray transferred to Ross County in January 2023 for an undisclosed fee. After a consistent stint at Ross County, he made another move, this time returning to Dundee in the Premiership in July 2024, again for an undisclosed fee. Now back playing for Dundee, Murray continues to contribute to the team's objectives with his industry and goal-scoring ability.
