Jamie McGrath

Jamie McGrath of Hibernian was born in Athboy, Rep. Ireland on 30 September 1996 (age 29).

Jamie McGrath, an Irish midfielder hailing from the Republic of Ireland, was born on 30th September 1996, which makes him a 29-year-old footballer. He is currently playing with Hibernian, where he primarily slots in as a central attacking midfielder. A respectable height of 5ft 9in (1.76m) and a sturdy weight of 11st 2lb (71kg), he is seen on the field adorning the number 17 jersey. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is approximately £1m.

The early phase of McGrath's career saw him joining St. Patrick's Athletic, a club in the Premier Division of the Republic of Ireland in January 2014. His first season in 2014 was marked by a solitary first-team appearance, but 2015 and 2016 saw him becoming much more integral to the squad, participating in 23 league matches each year and scoring two goals in each season.

In a transfer move in January 2017, Jamie left St. Patrick's Athletic to join Dundalk, a First Division side in the Republic of Ireland. During his tenure at Dundalk, he notably made 65 first team appearances and netted nine goals in league matches across 2017, 2018, and 2019.

The beginning of 2020 saw McGrath shifting his talents to Scottish soil, transferring to St Mirren in the Premiership. His two seasons at the club saw a gradual increase in his involvement, with his appearances totalling 60 across the seasons, and he marked his name on the scoresheet 12 times in league encounters.

The transfers didn't stop for McGrath, as he moved to Wigan Athletic, a League One club in England, in January 2022. However, his stay was short-lived and that same year in August, McGrath was back in the Scottish Premiership with Dundee United on loan. The 2022-2023 season with Dundee United saw McGrath participate in 32 first team games and score eight goals in league matches.

In another move, McGrath left Wigan Athletic, this time permanently, to join Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership in August 2023. Here, the midfielder enjoyed consistent game time across two seasons, notching up 59 first team appearances in the league and adding 13 goals to his professional career tally.

The Hibernian call came in July 2025. The current 2025 - 2026 season sees McGrath at Hibernian, where till now he's had 11 starts and four goals in league encounters. Additionally, he has also featured in League Cup 2025 - 2026, Europa League Qualifiers 2025 - 2026, scoring once, and made appearances in Conference League Qualifiers 2025 - 2026 for the club.
