Chris Hamilton, born on 13 July 2001 (age 24), is a Scottish central defensive midfielder now with Ross County. His early senior football came through loan spells, the kind of practical education that tends to matter more for players in his position than tidy promise on a club profile page.
His career has been shaped mainly at Dunfermline Athletic. Over four seasons he made 110 league appearances and scored three league goals, becoming a regular part of the side rather than a passing squad name. His most productive league campaign came in 2023-24, when he scored twice in 32 appearances.
Hamilton’s move to Ross County has not yet brought league football in 2025-26. He has made three Scottish Cup appearances for the club, with no goals, and has still to force his way into their league side. His current market value is around £106,000, according to Transfermarkt.
Hamilton’s career to date is that of a solid Scottish midfielder whose main body of work remains his Dunfermline spell, with Ross County the next stage still waiting to take proper shape.
