Jamie McGrath

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

Jamie McGrath; born in the Republic of Ireland on 30th September 1996, currently 29 years old, is a reputable midfielder and a central attacking power player representing Hibernian. This 5ft 9in (1.76m) tall football ace weighs 11st 2lb (71kg), and proudly dons the number 17 jersey on the field. His football prowess goes beyond club matches as McGrath has also represented the Republic of Ireland in the international sphere.

The market value of this potent footballer stands around a hefty sum of about £1 million according to Transfermarkt.

McGrath's career in football began with a transfer to St Patrick's Athletic in the Premier Division in Republic of Ireland back in January 2014. His debut season saw him making only one first team appearance in league matches, which improved substantially over the next two seasons; culminating into twenty-three team appearances with two goals on his name in both seasons 2015 and 2016.

January 2017 marked another milestone in McGrath's career as he transferred to Dundalk in the Premier Division in Republic of Ireland where his skill shone forth for three consecutive seasons, the best of which was the 2017 season where he made 28 appearances and scored an impressive six goals.

McGrath then transferred from Dundalk to St. Mirren in the Premiership in Scotland in the first month of 2020. Over the three seasons, he made significant contributions to his team, especially in season 2020 - 2021 where he scored ten goals in thirty-five first team appearances.

January 2022 saw McGrath changing clubs once more, moving from St. Mirren to Wigan Athletic in the League One in England for an undisclosed fee. His stay at Wigan was cut short as he had another transfer to Dundee United in the Premiership in Scotland on loan in August 2022.

Upon his return from Dundee United, McGrath terminated his ties with Wigan Athletic and transferred to Aberdeen in the Premiership in Scotland in August 2023. His two seasons at the club turned out to be quite fruitful as he held a record of 59 first team appearances with 13 goals in total.

McGrath's journey continued as he transferred from Aberdeen to Hibernian in the Premiership in Scotland in July 2025. Currently, in the 2025 - 2026 season at Hibernian, McGrath has amassed 23 first team appearances and scored an impressive seven goals in league matches, proving to be a valuable addition to the team.

McGrath's career highlights also cover his participation in various cups and leagues further solidifying his contribution to the field of football. These include the League Cup 2025 - 2026, Scottish Cup 2025 - 2026, Europa League Qualifiers 2025 - 2026, Nations League 2024 - 2025 and Conference League Qualifiers 2025 - 2026.
