Lewis Neilson, a Scottish footballer, was born on May 15, 2003, making him currently 21 years of age. Functioning primarily as a central defender, Neilson is currently serving his term at St Johnstone. Honouring the number 6 jersey, this 6ft (1.84m) tall sportsman carries a weight of 11st 6lb (73kg).
Neilson's football journey took its professional leap in July of 2018 when he joined Dundee United in Scotland's Premiership as a trainee. During his debut season with Dundee United (2020 - 2021), he graced the pitch in nine matches. The next season saw a slight decrease in his appearances, with six matches in the 2021 - 2022 season.
In a remarkable turn of events in March 2021, Neilson was loaned from Dundee United to Falkirk in the Championship. But, as with all loans, his time at Falkirk was limited, and in June 2021, he found himself returning to Dundee United. Again, he made his presence felt in nine games during the initial debut season and six matches during the subsequent 2021 - 2022 season.
The saga of transfers continued for Neilson, this time moving him from Dundee United to Hearts in the Premiership in July 2022. His stint at Hearts was short-lived, with only ten match appearances in the 2022 - 2023 season.
Another loan awaited him in August 2023, this time from Hearts to Partick Thistle in the Championship. However, this season served as one of the significant points in his career. Not only did he participate in an impressive 36 matches, but he also netted his first league goal. But the completion of his loan in June 2024 meant that he was back with Hearts where he managed to add another ten matches under his belt during the season 2022 - 2023.
In another turn of events, Neilson found himself being loaned once more, this time from Hearts to St Johnstone in the Premiership, in July 2024. Not one to shy away from the pitch within the current season (2024 - 2025), he made eight league appearances for St Johnstone. His time at St Johnstone stands out as he also participated in the League Cup 2024 - 2025 for the team, making his starting mark in one of the games.
