Auston Trusty, hailing from the USA, was born on the 12th of August, 1998. Thus, stale of experience yet surprisingly still youthful, he is currently 26 years of age. This American defender is renowned for his valiant performances in the central defender position for the Celtic Football Club. Presenting an imposing figure at 6ft 3in (1.91m) and weighing in at 12st 1lb (77kg), Trusty is fittingly allocated the number 6 jersey on the football field.
As per the estimations of Transfermarkt, Trusty holds a respectable market value of around £6m. His contract with the Celtic Football Club, with 4 years and 8 months to its expiration, is due for review only by the 30th of June, 2029.
The formation years of his career saw Trusty teaming up with Philadelphia Union in the USA’s Major League Soccer (MLS) as a trainee in January 2016. Making an impressive debut in the 2018 season, he graced the field 34 times and registered a goal to his name. Maintaining his form in the following 2019 season, he played 22 matches and notched up another goal.
Trusty’s journey then took a shift in November 2019 when he switched allegiances and joined forces with Colorado Rapids, still within the domain of the MLS. Under their badge, Trusty marked his presence with 8 matches in 2020, 33 and a goal in 2021, followed by 16 appearances in 2022, providing a stable output each season.
England then beckoned Trusty in January 2022, as Arsenal secured his signature for a sum around £1.6m, only to have him dispatched on loan to his previous team, Colorado Rapids, by February. His ensuing stint at Colorado Rapids saw him lending his might in 8 matches, 33 matches with a goal in each respective season, along with 16 further appearances in 2022.
Deploying his services outside the Premier League, Arsenal loaned him out to Birmingham City, competing in League One, in July 2022. Emerging as a vital cog for the Blues, Trusty boasted of 44 appearances with 4 goals in the 2022 - 2023 season.
Another relocation soon followed in August 2023, this time to Sheffield United in England's Championship, after Arsenal received around £5m in return. Over there, Trusty played his part in 32 matches during the 2023 - 2024 season, followed by a singular appearance in the incumbent 2024 - 2025 season.
The latest chapter in Trusty’s journey was penned in August 2024 when the Celtic Football Club shelled out approximately £6m to acquire his services from Sheffield United. As a Celtic warrior in the ongoing 2024 - 2025 season, he has stepped onto the pitch on six occasions in league matches. Additionally, his commitment towards Celtic is also evident from his participations in the League Cup with two starts, and the Champions League with three starts and a substitution appearance in the ongoing 2024 - 2025 season.
