Barry Douglas, born on 4th September 1989 in Scotland, is a defender primarily filling the role of left back for St Johnstone. Standing at 5ft 10in (1.78m) and weighing 10st 1lb (64kg), Douglas currently sports the number 30 jersey.
According to Transfermarkt, his present market worth sits around £85k. His contract with St Johnstone has a brief span of two months remaining, with its expiration date pinned for 31st May 2025.
The start of his career can be traced back to July 2008, when Douglas made his move to join Queen's Park in Scotland's Championship. He showcased his prowess during his two seasons, putting up an impressive total of 66 first team appearances and netting eleven goals.
In July 2010, Douglas switched flags from Queen's Park to Dundee United in the Premiership. His performance seemingly waned during the three seasons he played with the team, making 61 first team appearances and scoring four goals.
Fast forward to July 2013, a new phase of his career drew the curtains open as he transferred from Dundee United to Lech Poznan in Poland's Ekstraklasa. Over the course of four seasons (discounting the 2021 - 2022 season and the seasons following), he took part in 58 first team appearances and scored three goals.
At the commencement of January 2016, for a fee of roughly £180k, Douglas was transferred from Lech Poznan to Konyaspor in the Süper Lig in Turkey. He maintained a steady rhythm of appearances, playing in 34 first team games over two seasons.
In July 2017, he jumped ship yet again, transferring from Konyaspor to Wolverhampton Wanderers in England's Premier League for about £1m. Post-transfer, he made 39 first team appearances and scored five goals in league games in his debut season.
After a single season, in July 2018, Douglas was traded from Wolverhampton Wanderers to Leeds United in the Championship with a £3m price tag. His game time saw a substantial decrease during the two seasons he spent with Leeds United, playing in 42 first team matches.
In putting on a new guise in October 2020, Douglas sealed a loan deal with Blackburn Rovers in the Championship from Leeds United. His stint was nothing short of satisfactory, making 30 first team appearances during the season.
Following the conclusion of his loan term in July 2021, Douglas returned to Lech Poznan in the Ekstraklasa from Leeds United. Over the ensuing three seasons, Douglas contributed in 46 first team games and scored once.
In October 2024, Douglas returned to his home soil, joining St Johnstone in Scotland's Premiership. In the ongoing 2024 - 2025 season, Douglas has been cast in 13 first team appearances. All while contributing towards St Johnstone's Scottish Cup 2024 - 2025 campaign with two starts.
