Dane Murray, born 26 June 2003 (age 23), is a Scottish central defender at Celtic, wearing squad number 47. At 6ft 4in (1.93m), he is an imposing presence, which is a useful starting point for the position rather than a full job description.
His first Celtic connection came early, but the senior part of his career has been shaped most clearly by Queen's Park. In 2024-25 he made 18 league appearances for the Spiders, the main body of first-team football in his career so far.
Celtic brought him in from Queen's Park in January 2025. His time at the club has included two Premiership title wins, in 2024-25 and 2025-26, as well as runner-up finishes in the Premiership and Scottish Cup.
In 2026-27, Murray has made three Scottish Cup appearances and four in the Europa League for Celtic, taking him to seven appearances in all competitions for the club. His current market value is around £298,000, according to Transfermarkt.
His career to this point is simple enough: developed around Queen's Park first-team football, then a move to Celtic, where he remains a squad defender still building his senior record.
