Simon Murray

Simon Murray of Dundee was born in Dundee, Scotland on 15 March 1992 (age 33).

Simon Murray, the Scottish forward, was born on the 15th of March 1992, making him an established player aged 33. Passionate in his role as a striker for Dundee, his physical attributes play into his game nicely. His height of 1.82m (5ft 11in) and weight of 70kg (11st) provide an excellent base for his powerful play style. The number 15 jersey is his choice. His current market value, according to Transfermarkt, hovers around the mark of £134k.

His journey in professional football started back in July 2010, when he joined Montrose in League One in Scotland. In January 2011, Murray moved on from Montrose to join Tayport in the Junior Teams in Scotland. A substantial change came in July 2014 when he joined Arbroath in the Championship in Scotland where he made 35 first team appearances and scored 19 goals in league matches during the 2014 - 2015 season.

In July 2015, Murray transferred from Arbroath to Dundee United in the Premiership in Scotland, a deal that cost Dundee United around £45k. He contributed significantly at Dundee United, with 22 and 32 first team appearances, and scoring 7 and 10 goals in the league matches during the 2015 - 2016 and 2016 - 2017 seasons respectively.

July 2017 marked a move to Hibernian in the Premiership in Scotland. In the 2017 - 2018 season, Murray made 22 first team appearances scoring six goals in league matches. A brief loan move took place in January 2018, taking him to Dundee in the Premiership in Scotland. He bagged 3 goals for Dundee in his 14 first team appearances in the 2017 - 2018 season.

During 2024 - 2025 season, he made 38 appearances and netted 16 goals for Dundee. He continues to ring in for them in the 2025 - 2026 season with 19 first team appearances and a single goal till date.

Between his time at Hibernian and his return to Dundee, Simon travelled to South Africa in July 2018 when he was transferred to Bidvest Wits in the First Division for a sum of approximately £134k. Two years later, in 2020, he returned to Scotland transferring to Queen's Park in the Championship where he made 22 first team appearances and 15 goals in the league in the 2022 - 2023 season. In January 2023, he moved to Ross County in the Championship in Scotland. In his time at Ross County, Murray found himself as the first choice, making 14 and 37 first team appearances and scoring 2 and 14 goals in the 2022 - 2023 and 2023 - 2024 seasons respectively.

In July 2024, Murray transferred back to Dundee in the Premiership in Scotland. His performance at Dundee over his two seasons has been notable - 14 first team appearances and 3 goals in the 2017 - 2018 season. He made a remarkable contribution in the 2024 - 2025 season with 38 first team appearances and 16 goals.

Murray remains active in the current 2025 - 2026 season having made 19 first team appearances, and scored a goal in league matches. His performance in the domestic cups also carries merit, as he scored two goals in four matches in the League Cup and made one start with another appearance as a substitute in the Scottish Cup for Dundee during the 2025 - 2026 season.
