Max Watters, born on 23 March 1999 in England, dons the number 36 jersey as a forward for Dundee United. His physique is typically consistent with that of a striker, standing at 1.81m (5ft 11in) and weighing in at a robust 80kg (12st 8lb).
Watters' involvement in football was first notarized in July 2018 when he transferred from Ashford United in the Isthmian League in England to Doncaster Rovers in the League One, also in England, for an undisclosed fee. Shortly afterwards, in August 2018, he was loaned to Grantham Town in the Southern Football League. After completing his loan at Grantham Town in June 2019, he returned to Doncaster Rovers.
The latter half of 2019 saw Watters, again, becoming a temporary feature in another club. He was loaned to Mickleover Sports in the Lower Leagues in September and then returned to Doncaster Rovers in November 2019 after the loan period ended.
In October 2020, Watters made a permanent move from Doncaster Rovers to Crawley Town in the League Two, and then in January 2021 to Cardiff City in the English League One. During his debut season at Cardiff in 2020-2021, he made three first-team appearances in league matches. This was followed by a more promising season in 2021-2022 where he registered eight appearances and scored one goal. In the 2022-2023 season, he appeared on the field 11 times for Cardiff City.
In July 2021, he was loaned to MK Dons in the League Two, and then transferred back to Cardiff City for an undisclosed fee in January 2022. He spent relatively short duration at Barnsley on loan, making seven first-team appearances and scoring one goal for the 2022-2023 season.
Eventually, Watters departed from Cardiff, making a permanent move to Barnsley in July 2023 for an undisclosed fee. Watters then switched gears as he moved north of the Border and joined Dundee United in the Scottish Premiership in July 2025. As part of Dundee United's 2025-2026 campaign, he has so far accumulated 11 appearances and scored two goals.
In addition to his league appearances, Watters' Scottish journey involved participation across several tournaments. During the 2025-2026 League Cup and the Scottish Cup, he made a start in each competition for Dundee United. Additionally, he showcased his scoring abilities during the 2025-2026 Conference League Qualifiers, scoring three goals in four appearances—two as a substitute.
As per Transfermarkt, Max Watters' current market value hovers around £340k.
