Born on the 29th of December 1993, Tony Watt, now 32, is a Scottish forward, presently playing for Partick Thistle. Measuring 1.82m (5ft 11in) in height and weighing 88kg (13st 12lb), Watt wears the number 32 jersey for his team. His present market worth, according to Transfermarkt, is in the vicinity of £128k.

Watt introduced himself to the football world in July 2010, signing for Airdrieonians in the Scottish Championship. He scored three goals in his 15 appearances that year. In January 2011, he made a significant move from Airdrieonians to the Scottish Premiership's Celtic for a fee of around £100k.

His debut season with Celtic saw him on the pitch three times and netting the ball twice. The next season (2012 - 2013) at Celtic treated him with more opportunities resulting in 20 appearances and five goals. In the 2013 - 2014 season, however, Watt was limited to just two league appearances.

A loan to Belgian's Derde Klasse's Lierse SK in August 2013 opened more doors for him, where he managed eight goals in his 17 appearances for the 2013 - 2014 season. The end of the loan saw him transferring from Celtic to Belgium's Standard Liege for a significant fee of close to £1m in July 2014. His stay there was marked by 13 appearances and two goals during the 2014 - 2015 season.

His next career step brought him to England's Charlton Athletic after transferring from Standard Liege for an undisclosed fee in January 2015. He saw reasonable action there, making 22 appearances and sacking five goals in his first season (2014 - 2015). The 2015 - 2016 season saw him making 14 appearances and two goals, followed by 16 games and a couple of goals in the 2016 - 2017 season. His final season (2017-2018) was less productive, with a single league appearance.

Watt's career then saw several quick moves. He was temporarily dispatched to Cardiff City from Charlton on loan in November 2015, featuring in nine matches and scoring twice. Upon his return to Charlton, he found himself again on loan, this time to Blackburn Rovers in the 2015 - 2016 season, where he could show his prowess nine times and score once.

His next move was a loan to Hearts in July 2016, making 16 appearances and scoring once. In 2017, he was on the move again, this time from Charlton to Belgium's Oud-Heverlee Leuven for an undisclosed fee. However, after 11 appearances and one goal in the 2017 - 2018 season, he found himself jumping from one team to another.

Other than short stints at St Johnstone, CSKA Sofia, and back to a fruitful spell at Motherwell, Watt also spent time on loan at Dundee United, St Mirren, and Motherwell. As of January 2022, Watt transferred from Dundee United to Partick Thistle for around £100k. In the current season with Partick Thistle, he has already made 26 appearances and scored five goals. Besides his regular league games, he's also had a run in the League Cup and Scottish Cup, grabbing four goals from six matches.
