Zac Sapsford

Zac Sapsford of Dundee United was born on 16 August 2002 (age 24).

Zac Sapsford (born 16 August 2002, age 24) is an Australian striker with Dundee United, where he wears the No. 9 shirt. A centre-forward by trade, he has built his recent senior career in Scotland rather than arriving with much ceremony attached.

His strongest league return came in 2025-26, when he scored nine goals in 38 appearances for Dundee United. That is the season that gives the clearest shape to his profile: a forward getting regular work and producing a useful, if hardly extravagant, return.

In 2026-27, Sapsford has made six league appearances and scored once. He has also played five times in the League Cup, scoring three goals, and three times in the Scottish Cup. Across all competitions for Dundee United that season, he has 14 appearances and four goals.

For now, his career is still taking shape: an Australian striker establishing himself at Dundee United, with his best return so far coming in Scottish league football.
