Jamie McGrath, born on 30 September 1996 (age 29), is a Republic of Ireland attacking midfielder with Hibernian. He wears number 17 and remains a regular first-team presence in 2025 - 2026, which is usually the most useful measure of a player’s standing once the early promise has given way to the weekly grind.
McGrath’s most productive league season came at St Mirren in 2020 - 2021, when he scored 10 goals in 35 appearances. That campaign gave him a firmer profile in Scotland: not a headline act, but a midfielder capable of adding goals from areas where too many players are content to circulate the ball safely.
His career has also brought a Scottish Cup win away from Hibernian. At Easter Road, he has continued to carry a proper workload, making 34 league appearances and scoring eight league goals in 2025 - 2026, along with one Scottish Cup outing. Across all competitions for Hibs, that leaves him on 35 appearances and eight goals for the season.
His current market value is around £1m, according to Transfermarkt. McGrath’s career is that of an established Premiership midfielder: productive at St Mirren, still involved heavily at Hibernian, and relevant because he continues to play and contribute rather than simply occupy a squad place.
