Chris Hamilton, born on 13 July 2001 (age 25), is a Scottish central defensive midfielder with Ross County. His current market value is around £106,000, according to Transfermarkt.
His early senior football was shaped by loan spells, the sort of practical education young midfielders tend to need before they are trusted with the unglamorous work in the middle of the pitch. Hamilton’s career then settled properly at Dunfermline Athletic, where he became a regular rather than a passing name.
Dunfermline remains the main part of his story. Across four seasons he made 110 league appearances and scored three league goals, a sustained run that gave his career its clearest shape. He was not there as decoration; he played often, and in a position where reliability usually matters more than noise.
At Ross County in 2026-27, Hamilton has found a sharper edge in front of goal, scoring four times in nine League One appearances. He has also featured once in the League Cup and three times in the Scottish Cup, taking him to 13 appearances across all competitions this season. His form has been solid overall, though it has dipped slightly in recent weeks.
Hamilton’s career to date is built around that long Dunfermline spell, with Ross County now giving him a fresh stage and a more productive scoring return. He remains a practical, established Scottish midfielder rather than a player needing much dressing up.
