Auston Trusty, who hails from the United States, was born on the 12th of August, 1998 and is now currently 26 years of age. Trusty is a solid defender, mostly occupying the central defence position for Celtic Football Club. With a riveting height of 6ft 3in (1.91m) and a weighty build of 12st 1lb (77kg), he indeed brings a substantial presence to the backline. From his jersey bearing the number 6, one can discern his predilection for the defensive craft.
For those interested in the financials, according to Transfermarkt, Trusty's current market value hovers around the €8.00m mark, which converts to approximately £7.5m. As for his association with Celtic, his contract is expected to last till the sunset of June, 2029, marking a remaining duration of 4 years and 6 months.
Trusty's apprentice phase began in Philadelphia Union, an MLS outfit in the USA, which he joined as a trainee in January 2016. His debut season in 2018 saw him make 34 first team appearances, alongside scoring a singular goal in league matches. Trusty's tenure at Philadelphia was consistent, with 22 more appearances and another goal in the following season. As the curtain fell on November 2019, Trusty found himself transitioning from Philadelphia Union to another MLS counterpart, Colorado Rapids, for an undisclosed fee.
His stint at Colorado Rapids was marked by his regular appearances and the occasional goal, marked by 8 appearances in 2020, 33 appearances (one goal) in 2021, and 16 appearances in 2022. A significant turn was witnessed in Trusty's career when he found himself moving from Colorado Rapids to Premier League stalwarts Arsenal in January 2022, for a calculated fee around £1.5m. However, within a month of his move to Arsenal, he was back in Colorado Rapids, this time on loan.
In July 2022, Trusty was once again packed off on loan, this time to Birmingham City in England's League One. His tenure in the 2022-2023 season was marked by a noticeable increase in goal scoring, netting 4 goals in 44 first team appearances. A subsequent transfer from Arsenal to Sheffield United in the Championship materialised in August 2023, with around £5m changing hands.
From making a solitary appearance in the 2024-2025 season at Sheffield to a grand move to Celtic in the Scottish Premiership for approximately £6m, Trusty's journey is anything but dull. At Celtic in 2024-2025, Trusty has made a dozen appearances for the first team, alongside scoring a goal. His participation extends to the League Cup with three starts and the Champions League with five starts and one appearance as a substitute.
