Jack Walton

Jack Walton of Dundee United was born on 23 April 1998 (age 28).

Jack Walton, born on 23 April 1998 (age 28), is an English goalkeeper whose senior career has taken its clearest shape at Dundee United. He came through at Barnsley and made three league appearances there in 2017-18, an early foothold rather than the main part of the story.

That has come at Tannadice. Wearing the number one shirt, Walton has made 74 league appearances for Dundee United across three seasons, giving his career a firmer centre than his earlier spells managed. His current market value is around £425,000, according to Transfermarkt.

In 2026-27, he has made two league appearances and four more in the League Cup for United. It is a straightforward profile: an English goalkeeper whose professional standing has been built mainly through Dundee United, with Barnsley providing the earlier starting point.
